Weird Home Button Noise

I recently dropped my iPhone 8 Plus on the ground, like literally 10 minutes ago, and now the home button is making this weird vibrating/buzzing noise when I press it. How do I fix it? I’ve read about taking your phone apart but lol I don’t know how to do that and I would prob break it even more. Plz help!!!

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 13

DO NOT TAKE THE IPHONE APART!


The device is not user serviceable and will void your warranty. The home button is not really a button, but reacts to touch, and has a haptic response to simulate pressing. If you are getting a loud noise, the make a Genius Bar appointment at the nearest Apple Store to have it checked. It very well has internal damage to it. User damage is not covered by warranty, but if you have AppleCare you can get an out of warranty replacement at a reduced cost from new.
