You may have to change out the water. Swimming Pools generally need their water changed out every 4 to 5 years. After that they are extremely difficult to balance.

Should you shock the pool if your chlorine level is high?

You only need to shock the pool if there is visible algae, or if the ppm of total chlorine is higher than the ppm of free chlorine.

Let the level drop to that on its own, or use sodium thiosulfate to drop it quickly if you notice itchy skin from excessive chlorine.
