Accidentally drilled into joist, how big of an issue is this?

I was drilling from my living room down to my basement, behind existing drywall. In doing so I accidentally drilled into the joist, about 1.5 inches or so. How big of an issue is this and how can it be fixed? submitted by /u/muggs-3 [link] [comments]
