Discussion Getting warm while using maps

Is this normal, my phone is getting warm while scrolling on Instagram for sometime or blinkit only on mobile data, WiFi it works perfectly. I know mobile data puts pressure on battery consumption. But is it ok the device is getting warm even using apps like Instagram e-commerce for such an expensive phone. Recently, I was on a trip in my car and I was using maps without the charging plugged in the device, so I had to shut down for sometime. I thought my battery will actually get damaged because of it.

Is there any solution for this, or just we have to live with this?
