Pain or inability to eat anything after getting Re-RCT could be due to one of the following reasons:
1. Mostly RCT done twice should not give trouble until it was done properly. (Please attach a radiograph) to suggest the cause of pain in the RCT-treated tooth.
2. Improper cap preparation causing improper bite leading to pain on biting.
3. Poor oral hygiene.
4. Gum reinfection.
Next Steps
Visit to endodontist (root canal specialist) or post your radiographs to further guide you with correct line of treatment.

You have not mentioned the tooth and has it been crowned? Pain can arise in a root canal treated tooth for several reasons.
Next Steps
Get an X-ray done of the involved tooth and repost it here in the same forum or you can opt for an online consult using practo. This would help clinician give you a sound and valuable solutions to to your problem.
