It's nothing that pressing the power button (to turn the screen back on) won't fix. Either that or quickly move the phone near the ear and away.
If you're noticing that your screen is turning off too soon, you'll need to change the setting by
1. pressing the Menu button at your home screen
2. selecting Settings
3. selecting Sound and display
4. selecting Screen timeout
5. selecting a length of time that goes beyond what you have
But note that any changes made here will impact how long your phone's display stays on before timing out for every day use, too.
Again, given that you can press (not hold) the power button to turn the screen back on, it doesn't seem like a huge issue.

Turning it back on doesn't help the problem. Even when I start typing immediately, it still times out in 2-3 seconds. I have the screen time set at 30 minutes.

This is not the solution.
