Default Radiator Cap problem/help.....!

How can I check a radiator cap for its wellness or oldness?
I think this might be a reason why I am overheating at idle. Its an old generic brand cap.

When I looked at it this morning, there was a little coolant leaking out of the top part where the sticker is. Is this bad?

Also when the car is hot, the top radiator hose looks like its about to blow up because its so bloated. Is this normal?

Please help asap.....thanks

No that's not normal and yes you should buy a new OEM cap.
