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.

@yorkiemanuk It is a laptop. MacBook Pro 2015 series. I do have Norton installed and it does periodic scans.
