pixel 5a screen is loose; possible to tighten a bit?

I am wondering if someone know some trick about how to "tighten" the broken android screen?

I have a pixel 5a.

I dropped the phone and the screen broke. I could see the bottom half of the screen if I squeezed/twisted it. Touch is not consistent but sort of works for whole screen.

Now I can't see any of the screen. It seems that the screen is partly just loose connection since previously it was able to be fixed by squeezing. Still provides haptic feedback. Seems to be turned on.

Is there like a special way to apply pressure to get it to connect back again? even half the screen was functional enough. I have found guides online of how to replace the screen. I already had the screen replaced once; it seems the screens for this device sucks. I ordered a different phone. I'd like to be able to use this without the screen if I can because otherwise it is still functional.

I haven't ever opened a phone before and I don't have the special tools. If it is totally hopeless I don't know if I want to do it. Any ideas?
