Your symptoms suggest that you definitely need some treatment. Whether an RCT or a filling will depend upon clinical evaluation and xray. In case its a wisdom tooth, the prudent option might even be extraction. Advise: Schedule an appointment with your dentist as delaying it any further is no longer an option. Especially with decay towards the side even the adjacent tooth might be at risk.

If the concerned tooth is wisdom tooth it might be wrongly erupted so as to cause food lodgement. Which might be a cause for pain. A simple solution is to do warm saline rinses 5-6 times a day. But a permanent solution is to get it checked and look for the cause. Root canal treatment is not a solution to every tooth problem. Wish you the best of your health.

An xray needs to be taken to determine if the nerve is involved, if it is then a rootcanal treatment is absolutely necessary.
