Did you try and  hook up your laptop to a different screen to see if it's the screen or software?

I would also assume it's the screen.

You could replace the screen yourself pretty easily for under $100

I know the lcd goes for $54.99 on feabay. for a legit screen shipped from us. I had bad experience doing it myself do you know anyone who would install this for a good price?

The hinge on my Lenovo laptop is separating from all the opening and closing, and I’m worried the screen may crack soon. What are my options to fix it (or to get it fixed)?

Great! Wasn't looking to offer services. Just to help you if you decided to go at it yourself. I dealt with this issue on this model a number of times. Not sure if it's specific to this model or all Lenovos....

As long as the screen is not cracked, then all you need is https://www.ebay.com/itm/394242489025
