My tooth still hurts after a root canal. Should I have it removed?

Drphoto I had a root canal 10 days ago but my tooth is hurting and feels hot. My dentist prescribed antibiotics and medicine for inflammation. My question is should i have the tooth removed if the pain dosent go away when i finish my medicine?

Dr. Marcarian: No, if the pain does not go away your dentist will decide the next course of action.
