“Other” storage growing constantly

within the last 2 days my “other” storage has grown by 3GB despite me off loading and deleting unused apps and deleting pics. Now I can’t reload apps that I once had on my phone because the other storage grows for no reason. I now can’t even delete pictures and videos to try and free up space. My deleted folder won’t clear out and once I delete photos they don’t actually delete. My phone is absolutely not working at all just within a few days. HELP!
