What type of phone is it? I would get in touch with the manufacturer and tell them about it. It should still be under warranty

Did you buy this S7/S7 Edge new recently or is it a used phone. The S7/S7 Edge is almost a 2 y/o phone even if you did purchase it new recently. If you purchased it new recently, I would certainly look at the apps you have on the device. It looks like you may have a rogue app which is draining the battery.

Lol was going to but I feel like I am a broken record on here with that. I thought since the phone was a couple of months old that it might be a refurbished one and I think they do all that and more before they resell it. Either way I thought Samsung would have told them to do it.
