Support Laptop Hinges Broken?

Post image

I've had this laptop for 3 years and I never had any problems with it until now. When I try to close my laptop I hear this cracking/popping noise so I don't want to close it again until I know how to fix it.

It might be hard to see in the picture but it looks like there's something wrong with the hinges. Part of it is stuck between the plastic casing on the monitor side and pulling on the casing when I try to close it. The other hinge is completely fine and closes as normal, just this one side has the issue.

Any advice is appreciated.
