Batteries are considered Consumable Products. Over time it will degrade to a point where it needs to be replaced. The usage is normal as the capacity will go up and down all the time and never stay always at 100%. Apple Batteries are rated for 1000 Full Battery Cycles and / or 80% Capacity before needing Evaluation or replacement.
Hi.
Reseting PRAM/NVRAM (https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT204063) may clear some defective data around the MB or the charging circuitry.
If nothing changes I would take it to an Apple repair center.
