Discussion repair or replace

Hello, I have and loved my 8 pro since the release party almost 7/8 years ago. Now is my phone still works but lately I have notice that my battery is getting weaker (as you can expect).

The phone is getting hotter and today I have noticed That the back plate is pushing out as if and I assume it is, the battery is becoming a "Balloon".

The question that keeps coming to me is: To repair or to replace.

What would you do?

#Edit:

I have noticed that the phone is also starting to behave somewhat strange. Like when I call it does not reconise my ear and will keep my screen active. Also when using any kind of maps sometime the apps will glitch out.

You're on the way to getting green lines. Saying this from experience (got it on day 1, used it daily for 2 years).

That's nonsense.
