Hello sir,
Don't have to take the option of removal initially, there is an option to save your natural tooth by doing Root canal treatment and capping... If the root canal is not possible for that particular tooth, then you can decide for extraction... Try to save your natural teeth..

Hi sir...
As your history seems the cavity reached your nerve layer, which needs Root canal treatment....
Kindly take x_ray(IOPA)of involved tooth done...
You do not have need to remove your cavitated tooth....It can be preserved by root canal treatment.
Root canal treatment is removal of pulp(inner core consists of nerves),pulp chamber and root canal and they are filled and sealed
Next Steps
kindly visit nearby dentist immediately without delay...
