If your car is running, it should be fine provided your alternator can supply enough power to keep the battery charged and run all the electrical systems. If, somewhere in the circuitry, you have a current leak which is drawing more than the alternator can supply, it might be an issue. But, probably get a new battery or fully charge the current one for safety
