When an Apple Pencil Pro behaves like this after a drop, it usually means the internal sensor assembly has shifted or the pencil's outer casing has been compressed.
Stop using the end cap on your screen immediately. The cap end of the Apple Pencil is made of hard, blunt plastic and is not designed to glide safely across the glass. Using it can easily scratch your iPad screen or wear down the oleophobic (oil-resistant) coating.
