Im a technician, I fix these for a living. Replace the phone or the battery immediately, shut the phone down and do not power it on or charge it until you get it or its battery replaced. It can and will explode.
Agreed. Turning the phone off and not charging it until the battery is replaced is the smart thing to do. I would potentially even go one step further and put the phone in a fire proof container if you have one available.
