Volume changing

I have an iPhone XR and I am running iOS 16.2 on my phone. People I speak with on my phone have difficulty hearing me. I find that the volume button keeps going down at least half way. If I bring it to the highest and immediately press the volume button again, I find that it has returned to less that half way. Has anyone else experienced this and how can I resolve this? I have gone to Settings, Sound and Harpics and increased the volume there, but that is for my side. Ideas all welcome. Thanks
