If i have had a root canal can i go for bleaching of my tooth which is now discoloured?

Actually my dentist performed root canal surgery and my tooth is now discoloured. i am thinking about bleaching rather than veneers,crowns etc

Bleaching is a possibility; most likely, it will have to be internal bleaching. This is a process where your RCT is blocked off to a level below your visible gum line, and bleach is placed in. the technique is also called 'walking bleach', since the bleach will be placed into your tooth (blocked with a temporary filling), and you would return to the office in a couple of days until it is the color you like.
