Key board on MacBook Pro not working properly

The g key on my MacBook Pro that I purchased in 2018, is not working properly. I need to push on it hard to make it work. Is there anyway I can fix it myself. Eg does it need to be cleaned. Many Thanks 😊

one key not working correctly on 2021, 16 inch Macbook Pro I noticed recently that the "S" key on my 2021 16 inch MacBook Pro functions just fine if you click the key in the center, upper left, lower left or lower right... But, if you click in the far upper right corner of that key, it will NOT work at all, ever... You can start from the center and begin moving up toward the upper right corner and it keeps working until you get to the very corner and then, NOTHING... Might not sound like much but I type a lot and I find myself missing an "S" fairly often... Meaning I must often hit near that upper right corner... Nothing has spilled and otherwise all keys and the computer work fine... What, if anything, might I locally be able to do to fix this issue???? Any help would be appreciated... thanks...

Macbook Late 2011 Lower 'p' key not working Lower 'p' key stops working on Macbook pro late 2011 (Sierra). The issue started to occur when Macbook was turned on from sleep mode. Somehow the issue was fixed when i recreated the same scenario(put it to sleep then turned it back on) but now again i am facing the same issue. Upper ‘P' works with caps on but even for that you have to press caps several times to turn it on. Seems like software issue because it gets fixed sometimes but would like to hear from the people who have had the similar issue and somehow got it fixed without replacing the keyboard ?
