I have apple iMac about 3 months ago and has worked perfectly. Now my cursor is frozen in the upper left corner and won’t move. Mouse is well charged and hsve turned it off multiple times. Same with my desk top but to no avail. I’m stuck. Any though?

I have a 3 month old iMac desk top whose cursor is frozen in top left corner. Mouse is charged. turned it off/on multiple times as well as the computer but it’s still frozen. Thoughts?
