iPhone 4 very hot and battery draining quickly.

My IPhone 4 is incredibly hot near the rear camera and gets even hotter when I plug it in. While in use(Home screen) the portion of the screen near the rear camera, which, as far as I know, works just fine. The battery also plummets from the second I unplug it, dropping 13% in 45 minutes while fully powered down after a full charge. It has seen it's fair share of drops, but there is no visible damage on it. It's my only cell phone, and I don't have enough cash to replace the device. Please fix ASAP!

I have this same issue but with an ipod 4, my best guess is the apps you are using the processor and/or RAM is having a hard time working with that app because that app has higher requirements than a lower ios app
