Headlight switch?

I have noticed that once the headlights are turned on (even if only the running or marker lights) that the area around the switch on the dashboad becomes quite warm. Why should this happen and should I be concerned.

Thanks for any input.

Thank's Ray, I try to stay close to fire hydrants or lakes.

I think it might be because of too much resistance in one of the wires of some part that the electricity flows through, although if it dosent get smoking or melting hot, or too hot to the touch the plastic should dissapate the heat fast enough to not cause a problem
