Screen Malfunctioning

Accidentally laid on my screen for 20 minutes and it started making random inputs and not registering any of my touch inputs. The screen was flickering a bunch so I figured it was hardware related and opened up the phone. Everything was fine internally. The phone turns on, but the screen does not and does not register touch. The notification LED lights up when I plug it into the computer showing that it is charging (shown as a portable device in Device Manager) and the fingerprint sensor registers touch. Sadly it is not in USB debugging mode so it is not seen by ADB or MiFlash.

I am running the January patch of crDROID. Initially flashed an EDL package (Axon7_LOS15.1_180925_B12Oki_TWRP_LABS1.3_FULL_EDL.zip) and then installed crDROID with TWRP. Could it be software related or did my screen just die? I was thinking of trying to factory restore or reflash, but I figured I would see if anyone has any similar experiences first. Sorry for the noob question.

EDIT: Messed around with it again. Unplugged the battery so my alarm would stop going off. Plugged it back in and now the display works but doesn't recognize touch. If I drag down from the top, I can get the notification bar to come down about a quarter of an inch, but that's the extent of touch it recognizes. I think I'm gonna try and dirty flash at some point using a mouse to navigate the screen, but it's looking like I must have just damaged the digitizer. Anyone have any idea?
