[|Human|] Hi there :), i recently had 2 root canal treatments on a molar in the lower left side of my jaw. Before the 1st treatment, i had no pain in the tooth, but after the procedure my mouth felt like it was on fire. I returned to my dentist on friday, who carried out a 2nd root canal. It is now sunday, and following the 2nd treatment the left side of my face has swollen ans become hard to touch. There is no pain in the tooth, but i am a bit worried that this swelling has appeared almost 48 hours after the treatment. Any advice would be greatley appreciated. Thanks in advance :).
[|AI|]  Hello and welcome, The pain after root canal treatment may be due to-Infected pulp remaining within the canals, Overpenetration of files through the apex. Ledge formation. I would advise you to visit a dentist and get a thorough clinical as well as x-ray examination done. Take complete course of antibiotics-analgesics. Maintain oral hygiene well. Apply cold packs to subside the swelling. Hope this helps.
