Anyone know why my Mac is running hotter than usual??

I just had it professionally cleaned of dust since its an older model a couple months ago. It isn't running any unusual programs but the fan is kicking into hyperdrive after like 5 minutes now and the bottom is hot to the touch. The hot air is coming up through my keyboard too. I am very concerned since this is super unusual for it.

Because you are over using it. Or using it while charging it. Just shut it off for a while.

@SW-User I wish it were that simple. It only gets used for like 15 min to an hour at a shot every 6-7 hours or so.

@islandgirl55 maybe the exhaust fan is not working. Does it make 'click' sound sometimes?
