Cannot allow access to Photos/Camera

Hello,

Out of no where, my Instagram and Snapchat started telling me to allow access to my camera and photos. When I click on the option to send me to settings, there is no camera option. When I go into my privacy settings, then camera/photos there are no apps requesting access. Help!

iPhone SE, iOS 10
