Swelling after 4th day of rct
4 days are completed after my molar rct but issue is i still have mild swelling continuous dull pain around the gum and today on 4th day pain has increased. I just massaged my gums with haldi and mustard oil. After this pain has increased little bit, i am having small episodes of sharp pain like (blood flowing feeling) for a microsecond and then gone .
but i don't understand how rct tooth can be effected by anything external. Do i need to visit my dentist? Does haldi mustard can cause some issue?
