Toothache after root canal
Hello:
I recently had a root canal procedure (on #19 about 5 days ago) and have been antibodics for about 10 days. The sensitivity to cold that I was feeling was gone immediately. However, today I began feeling a dull, throbbing pain in the tooth NEXT to the tooth that had the root canal procedure. The pain tends to get more intense with physical activity, and the tooth is sensitive to pressure.
Is this pain related to the root canal procedure, or a sign that there may be something wrong with the other tooth?
Thanks!
