Will a small piece of cellphone screen that is missing emit more radiation?

Before I just had several cracks. Now a piece of screen actually came off :( I hope to get a new phone very soon, possibly this week. Do you think more radiation is emitting from that small area there is no screen?

engineer here. can confirm: yes, marginally. you'll be exposed to more RF radiation but it's not nearly enough for your body to even notice. use handsfree or speakerphone until you get it repaired / replaced

@tenente But if it is off, it is not emitting any right? Thanks for your reply.

no RF radiation (wifi, bluetooth, cellular). it will emit very very very low levels of electromagnetic radiation from the battery, internal circuits, etc... the same amount of radiation you'd experience sitting in front of your tv when it's turned off. it's not harmful
