Why does my iPhone 5s microphone make static or sizzling sound?

Hello! My phone mic does sizzling sounds in messenger calls and siri doesn't work it just shows that it's getting some sounds but it doesn't detect my talking. Microphone works perfectly in normal calls and voice memos. What may be the problem and a solution to that problem?

iPhone 5s, iOS 12
