Most pro shops won't repair anything on the sidewall for safety reasons & repair may not hold due to stresses there.

Can you fix a flat with screw in sidewall?

No, it is not safe or recommended to fix a flat tire with a screw in the sidewall. Sidewall damage compromises the structural integrity of the tire, and the tire should be replaced. Driving on a repaired sidewall can be dangerous and increase the risk of a blowout.

Can you drive with a tire bubble?

Can you? Sure you can, but I would not recommend it. Air is leaking through the plies of the tire and bulging the sidewall. This has caused the sidewall to separate from the carcass of the tire. This will eventually leak to complete separation of the sidewall and tread as time goes on. My advice is to replace any tire with a bubble on the sidewall. This is a defective tire that you do not want to drive at highway speed on and risk an accident. I built tires at a General Tire plant so I have knowledge of how they are built and I would not drive on this tire.
