Rear Brake, advice needed urgently (please)

Stand in front of rear brake caliper. Hold bike subframe. Place foot on rear caliper and push hard. The pistons will retract and the caliper will slide open on its two pins. Then pump rear brake pedal Do this a few times and it should free up any sticking pistons or caliper pins. All owners should do this every couple months anyway as a matter of course and as it acts as preventive maintenance in keeping the caliper from seizing on its sliding pins.
Will try, thanks for the advice. Next time you ride, can you check if after about 3 miles and moderate use, does the rear get too hot to touch even for 1 sec.
