The tire should be replaced as soon as possible, as it starting to come apart. A bubble on the sidewall is typically caused by an impact with something (usually a pothole). The belt on the sidewall is broken and air is forcing the sidwall to bulge

I wouldn't chance driving on it - not even just to the tire shop. I'd swap the spare on, and use that.
Oh, the tire might still be under warranty, maybe they'd cover part of the cost.
