Should/would/could/have you ever seen a LiPo swell after being discharged to near zero Volts?

In other words, the LiPo left plugged "on" - receiver and servos draining the LiPo for three days.

Would it swell? Is this normal? Abnormal? Anyone ever seen it?

What usually causes a swollen cell?

Thanks.

Swolen cells are often caused by draining a LiPo to nearly no volts. Doing so ruins the battery. []

It happens when you do that, speaking from experience here, don't ask.
Bucket of salt water for it after puncturing the swelled plastic.

I won't ask! And I won't tell either. Thanks Tjukweien! If they don't take it back it's getting punctured, dunked in salt water and sealed at my risk completely.

And thanks to Dorsal!

I have what I need, thank you so much. Carry on, there's no need for anyone else to answer this thread.

Thanks!
