Please share Xray. Dont do gargles for now. There is a small possibility it is another tooth that is the culprit but mostly it is just that there is still infected tissue left in the canal. I need to see Xray. Consult me privately on Practo.

Pain can occur upto 2 weeks after root canal. Get an X-ray done to check the filling inside. Do not get capping done until all symptoms have subsided
