Visit dentist get xray done. If tooth is in good condition n caries not extending into root you can go for root canal treatment.  If its extending into root it needs extraction.

Since you are aware now.... I'd suggest you not to delay anymore....and visit a nearby Dentist. If you're sceptical about the pandemic....you can have a online consultation with any Dentist and take opinion
