Why surface laptop trackpad popped out and what to do?

Hi, my surface laptop trackpad popped out slightly and I’m worried it could be hardware related. Could this be due to battery swelling or something else? What should I do?

A popped-out trackpad on a Microsoft Surface Laptop is usually caused by battery swelling, loose adhesive, or internal pressure. Stop using it immediately, avoid pressing it, and get professional repair—battery issues can be dangerous and may require urgent replacement.
