Deleted pictures reappearing

Pictures and videos from texts/iMessages I have bulk deleted through the contact info tab keep coming back. Have deleted multiple times and they just keep coming back, even right after saying delete, going back one page and then going right back to all pictures and then there are all the pictures I just said to delete. Is there a way to stop this?
