Spots on my screen?

[OreoBirb]

Hey guys! So, I dropped my phone of the floor a while back, and the screen is cracked. At the start, the only issue was the cracks. Over time, however, yellow spots on certain parts of the screen, and yellow streaks along the cracks have formed. Two of the dots are like a purple-y color. Should I be worried?

Sounds like you have cracked the LCD panel behind the glass.
These things don't get better/fix themselves.. the only get worse over time.

IF you have ANYTHING that needs backing up/copying off the phone...

NOW is the time to do it!

Thank you! I'm not sure if I'll even be able to get a new phone. How long until my phone is un-usable?

How long is a piece of string? could be days.. could be weeks.. could be months...

Thats why.. if you have any important photos... documents.. phone numbers... your top priority is getting them somewhere safe, whilst its easy/possible to do so.

once you have those safe.. you can see if a paid repair is an option.

If they turn black you have no choice.
First time I heard about yellow stains on phones...
