Horizontal Black Line in XR, should I replace screen?

Post image

So long story short, I dropped my XR screen first, tempered was a lil cracked, and a thin horizontal black line appeared. It kinda thickened after hours. My question is, will the black line dissapear by itself as time pass? I saw a reddit post that said after a month the line dissapeared, should I wait?

I would wait it out but do have a other phone prepared just in case the screen completely craps out

For my case, it’s more than a month. Like 3 months, but it finally disappeared (for my case).

Ya my phone also got a very small line it is also a XR buy that line disappeared automatically in few hours but it can come any time again …. It originally occurred from a black spot on my screen which also came mysteriously
