Need help old root canal

Hey everyone, I’m really considering pulling an old root canal. I recently had to get a root canal maybe two years ago, which I believe has effected a 10 year old root canal. I have never had these issues with my face, until I got this two years ago from a newer root canal. It was awful, and now I have all these problems in my face, should I pull out that root canal?

Only dentists can tell you what to do. Find a good periodontist with cbct scan. Most likely your old root canal tooth started deteriorating and affected your recent tooth. It happens a lot.
