A Few months ago i noticed a crack coming from my iphone in the back of it near where you plug it in to power up/Get music into it/ etc. And i wanted to fix it. So i decided to get the Apple Genuis bar to help me with this. The guy that helped me set up the appointment at the apple store said that they can fix the problem if i set up a appointment with the genuis bar so i did.
The day that the appointment was happening, i went to the apple store and showed them my Phone problem.
They came back and Said that the crack was not in a "Faulty Area" and therefore could not be fixed.
The Crack keeps on getting bigger and bigger in the back. i am actually fearing it might break fully sometime soon.
Just for measure this is what the crack looks like on the phone (Used a image i found on google and outlined the crack in paint).

What should i do now?
It's just a crack... if it starts actually breaking the phone then I'm sure they'd be more than happy to fix it.
Just wait, if it breaks... it'll get fixed, if it doesn't then you're fine.
wait till it snaps, then go back to the shop.

sorry if i overreacted i am just very paranoid about my stuff breaking.
My iPhone has exactly the same crack, except it's far longer. Also there's a crack coming from the headphone jack. Best thing to do is to knock it with a hammer until it grows right up / starts peeling, then take it into o2 and say "LOL YOU TROL ME". That should work wonders.
Replace the case?
I don't know about iPhones but oh about every single phone I've had had removable casing so you could change it for a different colour or design.

You can't
I have an iFrogz on my phone and haven't had any troubles. If you get it fixed, you may want to invest in the case.

Maybe you need a phone that likes it rough.
Back up all your contacts, files, etc in the anticipation that it does break. When it does, get it fixed/replaced.
Probably replaced, guessing from this video and Apple.
