Hi sir...
First and foremost is to take XRAY(IOPA) to rule out the cause
If the fracture is vertical then probably the tooth has to be removed
If the fracture is horizontal then we can save the tooth by root canal treatment followed by capping
Next Steps
kindly visit dentist for futhur management
Health Tips
do brushing twice daily
do flossing evryday

From your description it seems you will need an extraction of the tooth. Will need to see Xray before I give you a definitive answer

Not eating from that side is not a solution,please get it checked before your whole tooth gets fractured or infected,please show it to a dentist nearest to you , doctor will guide you how it can be restored,you should eat from both the sides after treatment because overtime eating from one side can lead to joint pain( TMJ disorders),strain to your joints , sensitivity.

Immediate attention is required visit a nearby qualified dentist depending on the amount of destruction of teeth the dentist would either decide to do a RCT and crown and save the teeth or to remove if it's beyond correction. Thanks
