MacBook Air 2017 Creaking

My MacBook Air has a creaking noise from the right side of the trackpad , it just a small creak sound when I apply pressure on it ,but it is quite annoying . My question is will it damage the laptop itself ? Do all MacBook Air creaks?

Take the laptop to Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider to be examined. Either the Trackpad is misaligned, broken, or perhaps it just has dirt/liquid residue causing the Trackpad to bind or interfering with the motion of the Trackpad. Or perhaps the battery is beginning to swell which can cause issues with the Trackpad.
