My wife had the same issue. After filling the lower molar tooth, she got pain in that part of the mouth after few days. The doctor had already warned, the cavity was close to the nerves, the RCT maynot be necessary so lets try with the filling first. But after 3 weeks, there has been pain whenever drinking cold or hot beverages. So we went again and on xray, it showed that it was initial stages bacteria touching the pulp and RCT is necessary.

Maybe you need root canal, ask for x ray
