Apple Watch getting hot only after few minutes on charger

MY APPLE WATCH WILL ONLY DISPLAY A RED LIGHTENING BOLT WITH WHAT LOOKS LIKE A CHARGER ATTACHED AND IS HOT ON CHARGER

My watch only shows the red lightning bolt and is hot on the charger after only a few minutes of being there. What should I do?

Depending on the age and use of the Apple Watch, the battery might have to be replaced.

Or did the Apple Watch come in contact with water?

You should get it checked by Apple or an Authorised Apple Service Provider:
