screen is coming off of the back - is it the lithium battery expanding & will it catch on fire &/or explode?

have a 'Surface Book - 512GB i7 16GB with GPU'

& the 'Hardware warranty expired 02/26/20' - & the screen is coming off of the back - it looks like the battery perhaps - a silver puffy looking pillow is expanding & was wondering if it will catch on fire or explode? 

it still works well otherwise & need to use it for work. 

thanks, b

p.s. was making popping sounds as I back it up... tech that cost almost 3k should not glitch this quickly.
