If your dentist has advised for the second molar extraction it definitely might be having some problem. The first molar for sure has to be extracted.
Take a second opinion from a nearby dentist if you have doubts regarding second molar

Hello sir, we have to examine clinically and also need to check with an x-ray before confirming the treatment plan.... If the 1st molar is fractured deeply, we have to extract that tooth for sure... If the second molar is not fractured and it's infected, the root canal treatment can be done for second molar and it can be saved...
