No, there is not.
Estimated cost of a new battery is $90-100. (U.S.)
Unfortunately, if the swollen battery has distorted the iPhone frame, Apple will likely refuse to service the phone at all.

For future reference, once the battery gets down to 80% capacity you should get a new one.
You should stop using and stop charging your phone. It could leak chemicals or, worst case, burst into flames. Put it somewhere where it can't do any harm until it's discharged.
