Okay, so sometimes when I'm on my laptop, the touch pad, and the area around it gets kind of warm and hot...

This means what? That I should not use it for awhile?

Laptops usually get hot. If it gets too hot, there is probably a lot of inside your laptop. Get one of those cans of compressed air and clear out the dust.

There are fan things you can get to go under a laptop. It cools them off. I know, I'm using one right now.

i'd shut it down and let it cool off for a while.

Just let it cool down a bit.

you need to shut it down for a while, give it a rest. It may overhear real bad

laptops have smaller fans, so it is better to let them cool down after every couple of hours.

Let it cool off if it's REALLY hot. Otherwise computers were meant to get warm

Mine did that a bit. Then the power adapter thing burned out. I'd probably let it cool down. Make sure the fan is able to fan.. aka don't sit the fan against your leg.

Let it cool down some.

I don't know. I have a laptop and that's never happened to me before.
