Why won't my phone turn back on (Samsung S3)?

Phone Wont Turn Back On (Samsung S3)

Last year my phone broke and started to glitch out when I pushed the home button. The screen was broken so Igot the screen replaced because I thought that might be the issue and it started working just fine again. A month or less later my phone randomly started resetting on me, my phone would heat up really hot when I was playing games I might have let it get to hot or something I'm not sure. But it decided it wouldn't turn back on one day. Would this be a battery problem or a phone problem? The battery looks swelled a little but I am not sure. Any idea how I could fix this? I don't have warranty.

A swollen battery is bad. In that condition, remove it from the phone....it could do damage, and may have done already.
