It's called fat Battery Syndrom. Run your battery a LOT without the power cord and it should slim down after a few weeks. If you see that you're battery is not looking weight(or mass) cut down on how much junk food you look at while browsing the net...

EDIT" just kidding...I'd remove battery at once.

How hot has it been lately? Could it have warped the plastic, possibly?

A picture of the BATTERY and not the case would give you a better answer to your question- "is the battery swollen?"

From what I see your case might just be warped. Buy like I said, Taking the battery out to look at it would be the logical thing to do.

Edit: What does that video have to do with anything you said?
