Q: iPhone 5s speaker issues

The speakers on my 5s have been working on and off for a couple months now (when listening to music, speaker phone, alert tones, etc). I've noticed that if I gently squeeze the sides of the phone it will start working again temporarily, before sounding distorted and then not working at all again. I've tried everything from restarting to cleaning lint out of the headphone jack, nothing has worked for more than a few minutes.

iPhone 5s, iOS 8.4
