Bluish and hurting gums surrounding dental crown.

Hello. I have had a dental crown on my upper left 1st molar due to a root canal procedure. However right around the crown, my gums are bluish and hurt a bit. It has always been like this actually, but it only hurts when I apply pressure to it.
Even when I floss in that area, it hurts a lot. On some occasions it bleeds.
What could this mean? Could this mean that the root canal procedure was unsuccessful, or rather than the crown placement was unsuccessful?
Thanks.
