charging issues- macbook air

I have noticed I have begun to have issues while charging. My computer and charger has always gotten a little hot while charging but my charger has been worse lately. I've noticed the charging box will get so hot I cant touch it and sometimes it won't be charging my computer even though everything is plugged in.
