    LCD screen of desktop PC got a small crack after it got hit by a falling table fan near it. The crack is small kinda like a dot made with a sketch pen or small marker. Willl the crack get worse and damage the monitor if we continue to use it ?

    If there's no black patch/dot under it, then it's not a crack - just a dent on the outer layer. Most of the time, it's not a problem, I've seen monitors with huge scratches and dents that still worked fine for years.
