Do not use WD-40, since it can easily travel to the circuit board contacts
or other places where it can cause trouble.  I would ignore it, or if it
gets really bad, take it to an Apple store and see if they want to try and
fix it.  If that screen goes its $1000, so do not do anything which might
void your warranty.
