It could be low, It may not hurt to change it.
However a worn engine could loose oil pressure on decell. I would start by checking the oil level, if you do not know the oil change history change it. Be sure to use the correct viscosity oil, It sould list it in the owners manaul. Mostlikly it will require 5 or 10W30. Also be sure to use the proper amount.
If it contiunes it might be best to have a repair shop look at it. I would not recommend driving until you know for sure it is not an internal engine failure.
The damage may already be done, but this could help minimize it.
