I've noticed that my laptop's battery is so swollen that it's causing my keyboard to bend and there's even a dent on the bottom of the laptop. I removed the keyboard because it wasn't working, but now I'm wondering if it's safe to keep using the laptop like this. Should I be concerned?

If you enjoy playing Russian roulette with your electronics, sure! But otherwise, seriously, it's time to get a new battery and stop using that laptop.
I can't stress this enough, just power it off and get it changed. Don't wait for it to cause more damage or worse.
Absolutely not! If your battery is swelling, you need to get a replacement right away. These situations can escalate quickly and it's not worth the risk.
Think of it as a dangerous situation. That battery is potentially explosive. Remove it, keep it far away from heat sources, and take it to a recycling center or a proper disposal facility.
Stop using it immediately! A swollen battery can be a serious fire hazard. It's best to power off your laptop and dispose of the battery properly before something dangerous happens.
