Brief Answer:
Go for extraction.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for writing in.

In my opinion wisdom teeth is vestigeal organ & if there is any such problem in this tooth then go for extraction.
Pain indicates that caries has approached pulp & in such case root canal treatment or extraction are only options.
Root Canal of wisdom teeth is difficult. Hence extraction is the only option.

Visit your dentist for further treatment plan.

Wishing you good health
