I had an absessed tooth that began hurting 10 months ago. Was told by my dentist the tooth looked healthy. I finally went to the endodontist & he performed root canal, stating the tooth was completely absessed & the root dead. Its five days later & I still have chronic pain, feel light headed & sick. I am taking antibiotics for the infection.
Hello.read through your query I must say that this pain after root canal treatment is just a usual...nothing to be worried in that.for few weeks after RCT pain may be there....take the antibiotics and analgesics as prescribed by your dentist.rest your body will take care.....do saltwater gargle twice daily....don't bite with that side for few days....hope you are benefitted something with my reply...have a healthy day!!
