Make sure your backup is current & test it can be successfully used for recovery.
Buy a new drive.
Make use of 1.
You cannot really "fix" these numbers as they represent the degraded state of your HDD/SSD.
Here's what you should do:
- Regularly check if these numbers are growing or not. If they aren't, you're OK and there's no need to worry.
- If these numbers are growing fast, it's time to replace your disk.
Lastly and most importantly:
- Make backups regularly if you care about your data - this is regardless of SMART values and everything that I've written above.
