Exclamation Binding Concerns

Could use some input here...

I was inspecting my 314kce today and noticed something quite concerning. The soundboard binding on the top of the guitar (non-cutaway side)is rough. It appears to be bubbling or perhaps pulling away, but it certainly isn't the way it is supposed to be. There are very distinct "bubbles" or raised creases in the binding which are both noticable by touch and even by visual inspection at this point.

My first thought was humidity, but I maintain the proper levels constantly. Any ideas why this might be happening? YIKES!!!! I noticed just 1 or 2 bumps a week or two ago, but now it is almost all the way around to the side of the soundboard by the electronics!

Please help!

Thanks all,

Jeff
