Is this battry BAD - T580 internal battery

The battery appers to have buldges but since this is the first t580 I have owned, I am not sure if this is normal or, if the battery is bulding and should be replaced.

That is not normal, You should get it replaced.

Make sure you dispose of it correctly according to your region's battery disposal laws
