Can't operate my phone--Iphone 16 pro

I can't do anything on my phone. It's stuck on instagram, I cant turn my phone off(it just goes onto SOS mode), I can lock my screen but that about it. I can't even silence my notifications. Is there anything else I can do to fix this?

Force your iPhone to restart:

Press and quickly release the volume up button.
Press and quickly release the volume down button.
Press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo (this might take longer than 10 seconds).

Good luck! 👋🏼😉
