I'm just wondering if maybe it was wearing out the fans faster because of that, and that one last session caused the fan to start acting up.

Yes, higher RPMs and increased heat will wear things out faster.

Would I need to replace the fan, or is there maybe some other issue at play?

As was mentioned you can tinker with it a little. You could also try blowing compressed air into the fan blades.

Sometimes fan issues resolve themselves with no intervention.
