Lots of how to on youtube.
if its not an expansion joint, yes the crack should be filled, there are products on the market made to do that very thing. i refer to it as sloppy caulk. its very runny, and you may need to apply it in layers to get the crack completely filled. ask your diy store sells associate where to find it.
