Broken MacBook Pro screen

So, I broke my screen about a month ago. It is working fine, just has some black lines going up and across the screen from the damaged area. Now a brownish hue is coming from the damaged area and I just want to know if I keep using the laptop will it cause more damage.

It is not recommended to continue using your laptop with a damaged screen as it can potentially cause further damage. The black lines and brownish hue you are experiencing may be a sign of further damage to the screen or the underlying components.

It would be best to have the screen repaired or replaced as soon as possible to avoid any potential harm to your device. Continuing to use your laptop with a damaged screen may also cause eyestrain and discomfort for prolonged use.

You can contact your laptop's manufacturer or a reputable repair shop for assistance with screen replacement. Alternatively, if your laptop is still under warranty, you may be able to get a replacement screen for free or at a reduced cost.

Remember, it's important to take care of your laptop and its components to ensure its longevity and optimal performance.
