hi.... i would suggest you to have x-ray of suspected tooth. by this only your doubt will be clear. if abscess is with rct treated tooth only then you need to undergo re root canal treatment. and if abscess is with other next tooth then that tooth need root canal treatment. without finding cause and taking antibiotics is not advisable. so do professional investigation then have treatment. take care
