Get an exam: If your pain is severe or worsening, by all means get to a dentist. If it is longstanding cold sensitivity especially of a general nature in location, try a desensitizing toothpaste. You could have a cavity needing treatment or it could be exposed roots that may benefit from desensitization. Your safest bet is to see a dentist to be sure.
