If you feel there is an issue with your device, have it examined at your local Apple Store:


Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options - Apple


There are a variety of reasons why your phone could be hot, the most common of which is you have an app running in the background that is using a lot of processor power, cellular data or both.
