Please visit a dentist asap. Severe pain indicates that your infection probably would have reached pulp/nerve. After clinical examination and X-ray, your dentist can decide treatment.

Hello Ma'am
Greetings of the day. You need to get a x-ray done so that the extent of the decay is known. If the decay has reached the nerves the tooth will need a RCT otherwise a filling can be done. In the meantime, warm saline gargles several times a day can help relieve the pain temporarily.
Next Steps
Do not delay the visit to the dentist
