This is what I would do 

Remove both SIM and SD cards > connect the phone to a wall charger > press and hold power & volume up for 15 seconds > let the phone charge for 3 hours

Have you dropped your phone or exposed it to water?

does it has a protective film or case that might be blocking the proximity sensor?

Remove it as it could be blocking the proximity sensor.
