Experiencing pain in a tooth that has undergone root canal treatment (RCT) can be concerning. Several factors could contribute to the pain: 1. Infection: If there is a persistent infection in the tooth or the surrounding tissues, it can cause pain. This could occur if the root canal procedure didn't completely eliminate the infection or if new infection has developed. 2. Inflammation: Sometimes, the tissues surrounding the treated tooth can become inflamed, causing discomfort. 3. Cracked tooth: A cracked tooth, especially if it extends into the root canal-treated area, can cause pain. 4. Improper restoration: If the tooth hasn't been properly restored with a crown or filling after the root canal treatment, it may be more susceptible to damage and pain. 5. Adjacent teeth issues: Pain in a previously treated tooth can sometimes be referred pain from adjacent teeth or tissues. 6. Trauma: Trauma to the tooth, such as a blow or injury, can cause pain, especially if it affects the treated root canal. It's essential to visit your dentist or endodontist for an evaluation if you're experiencing pain in a tooth that has had root canal treatment. They can examine the tooth, take X-rays if necessary, and determine the cause of the pain. Treatment options will depend on the underlying cause of the pain and may include additional root canal therapy, medication, or other interventions.

The image is not clear. The pain may be due to several reasons. You can consult the nearby dentist and get an x-ray done of that tooth to check if the rct is fine or not, it will give you better diagnosis that you need a re rct or not. Other reasons could be the pain sometimes is referred, that is  maybe the adjacent tooth is having some problem that can also be diagnosed by X-ray.
