Hi,

Firstly you’ll need to order a new battery.

While you’re waiting for the battery to arrive, you can do a web search for “Vivo s1 battery replacement” and familiarise yourself with the process, so you are ready to do the job when you have the parts.

There currently is no Vivo battery replacement guide on iFixit, but you could create one while you’re doing the replacement, to help others out.

Hope this helps

Just to elaborate on Harry's response, the simple answer is that you can't fix a swelling battery; your only option is to replace it.

The swelling is caused by gasses building up inside the sealed plastic layer, and those gasses are caused by the chemical reactions inside the battery breaking down and no longer working correctly. So the very act of swelling right there tells you the battery is failing, and the swelling can easily cause problems like dislodging the screen or back of the phone. If it goes on too long, eventually it's possible for the battery to catch fire (remember the Galaxy Note 7?), so you really do want to replace that battery ASAP.
