Hi... Severe pain after a root canal can and does occur mostly due to the treated tooth touching the opposite tooth. Your problem can be solved in a matter of 5mins if thats the trouble. You can revisit your dentist and see what he/she advises. But if pain still persists then the case is complicated and you better visit a root canal specialist(endodontist).

It can be due to over obturation of root canal, the gutta percha might have passed through the root apex and impugning the underlying bone.
It might be due to perforation or the doc might have missed a canal or accessory canal.
Can bw due to intrument breakage at root tip.
