If your battery is swollen, it means that the battery is failing - it can cause serious damage to other components and can cause a fire. You can see it if the laptop does not lay perfectly flat or the lower part of the laptop is bulging up.


Stop using it, make a backup, and turn it off. Then take it to your nearest store or authorized service provider.
