Hi! It seems like you are talking about the needle like files, used to clean the root canal. It is normal to bleed a little, but it shouldn't be very noticeable. Also, if the dentist has administered anesthesia, there should be no pain. Communicate your problems to your dentist, he/she will be able to deal with them in a much better way.

Although if u r given anaesthesia , it should not pain , but bleeding from the tooth itself is quite normal ..
But I don’t understand how can u see blood coming out of tooth during RCT ... ( ps - spitting during treatment is non advisable)
Hope u r getting treatment done from a specialist of root canal ..
Next Steps
Plz ask the doctor to anaesthetise u properly to avoid pain symptom..
trust the doc and get your treatment finished
