Battery issue swelling

My macbookpro case will not close it leaves a 1/8" gap. I was told that the battery may need changing.

Is it dangerous to leave as is?

Hello ~ It can be very dangerous and a very expensive repair could be in your future if you leave it that way. I urge you to take it in ASAP. Your health is important…please be mindful and careful as well. I would not use it at all until it is repaired.
