Windows 10: Laptop Stuck at 4%

Pretty much what the title says.

I was on my laptop last night and I took it off charge because it was at 100%. It shut down not even a minute later. I plugged it back in and it went back up to 100% really quickly. I figured Google Chrome was just eating up too much of my battery, so I left it plugged in. A while later, I saw that it was at 4% and not moving, so I closed down Chrome and all the other active programs on my laptop to see if it would charge. It didn't. I unplugged it to go to sleep and It's been about 16 hours since then. I opened up my laptop to use it and saw that it was still at 4%, so I plugged it in to charge it. Then I shut it down to let it charge some more without interference from the laptop being on. I turned it back on around 30 minutes or so later, and it's still at 4%. I thought about letting the battery die then plugging it back in to see if it would actually charge this time, but I'm worried that, if I do that, it won't be able to turn on at all.

Any advice?


EDIT: I forgot to mention, I've only had this laptop since December and I've been very careful to not leave it plugged in all the time, only when it needs to be charged. I don't know what could be causing this.
