Can't rotate photos on iPhone (rotate icons greyed out)

When I take some photos on my iPhone 12, they sometimes get saved upside down. If I open one of these and try to edit, I see the rotate icons in the top left but they are greyed out and I can't select them. How do I rotate my photos? OS 17.0.1

Hi an update won't fix this. Those button are actually the undo/redo buttons for when you make adjustment edits. You have to change to "crop" in order to rotate.
