1. Stop all write actions to that USB drive.
2. Copy that file to multiple alternate locations
3. Now you can try various methods of fixing it, including whatever is built into Word. Or possible LibreOffice.

4. Never, ever, have an important document living in one and only one place. Especially on a USB stick.
Ever.
