macbook air 2013 keyboard and trackpad frozen

This computer has been with me for nearly 8 years and it works great but its facing a trackpad and keyboard issue since 2 years. I am on the latest version of macOS too but it gets freezed everyday and the solution is get is just to do some mac heat up. I always hook up a keyboard and mouse just to work on it! It is really frustrating!

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.3
