Perhaps the proximity sensor is covered by something (cover/screen protector) that obstructs / interferes with its activity, or it is broken.

Make an appointment and have your device inspected at an Apple Store or AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) among this list:--> Apple – Location Selector

After checking it out, they'll give you all the available options.
