MacBook Pro charger is really hot!

My MacBook charger gets really hot; the MagSafe square part gets hot and sometimes the laptop itself, near the MagSafe plug. Sometimes it happens and sometimes not. Battery replaced a year or two ago, but this happened in the past with the old battery too sometimes.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.6

My macbook charger and macbook gets hot while charging. When charging (from 15% to 94), and using it at the same time (light web browsing), the charger head, power adapter (brick), and the mac itself get pretty hot(though the fans aren't spinning or anything) specifically the part of the mac where the charger is plugged in, the left and right palm rest, and the underside of the mac. Though the side where the charger is plugged in seems to be the hottest spot. Is this normal? I'm getting pretty worried, but I don't know if I should be.

Hi,

My charger is also hot when it's charging the battery, though cooling when it's finished.

It's normal, so you don't need to worry about it.
