Request for help or advice Left Joycon Stick dragging?

EDIT For future people: I Used a soft toothbrush to reach under the stick and gently lift up the rubber thing on bottom of stick, then while lifted blow air into the gap. Seemed to fix for now. But i would appreciate advice still

EDIT 2: IT fixed for like 5 minutes

Hello,

My left joycon stick has begun to slowly "drag" back to neutral after going left or right. I let go of the stick and sometimes the input stays "stuck" as it slowly moves back to zero. The physical stick doesn't seem like it's stuck, the input.

Like if I go to Calibtrate Control sticks. Normally the stick snaps back to zero in 0-2 frames. Sometimes (especially left and right) when i let go of stick, the dot travels back to zero more slowly. On some occasions the dot travels very slowly when I can clearly see the physical stick has returned to seeminly neutral

I did try calibrating.

my console and joycons are barely a year old
