You may need to backup your data to an external drive and then format that partition.

You need to use a data recovery programme like "Get Data Back" or Easy Recovery Professional" to lift the data off that damaged partition. Then, and only then, should you try to format it. (Neither of these progammes are free I'm afraid).
You should ask questions as to why the partition became damaged - was it something you did inadvertantly, or is the drive on the way to hard disk heaven?
