Something is running the processor at full blast, that's why it's getting hot.
Have a look in the settings menu under battery usage and see what is using the most battery as a first step.
Prob a rogue app or that it needs a reset.

It certainly sounds like an app.

Have you downloaded anything recently that coincides with the problem or installed any battery saving apps?

Could it just be that the battery needs replacing?

If it wasn't getting hot too, maybe.....
