thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, the pain will get aggravated soon after following RCT called flare up...usually it comes down after 3 days..continue the medication...and take one IOPAR to rule out any root fracture in the tooth, even that can cause pain like this...i hope my answer will help you.. take care..
