Throbbing pain after crown prep after 5 days. Could this be normal? Or will I need root canal treatment?

I had crown prep done a few days ago but have a constant tooth ache since. I need to take iboprofen which relieves the pain for approx 8 hours but then it returns even waking me up at night The tooth had no pain before provisional Crown placement.
