You will be numb for the procedure, so no, it should not hurt. However, everyone's pain tolerance is different. You may have some soreness once the procedure is completed, but then that will subside.
it is usually one of the easier teeth to work on
A root canal requires the same local anesthetic that one would use to do a filling. Once anesthetized you should be comfortable. Sometimes patients are placed on antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medication.
Needing a root canal hurts. Getting a root canal should not hurt.
Not usually, unless there is a great deal of swelling beforehand, in which case more local anesthetic is needed and there may be discomfort as swelling resolves afterward
