You fix this problem by replacing the screen. The screen was on the verge of failing before the update. The extra stress of restarts pushed it over the edge.
About $400 (U.S.) at the Apple Store / Genius Bar or an Authorized Apple Service Provider (AASP).
Add about $100 if the battery is in need of replacement. It probably is if you have not yet replaced it.
If you still have AppleCare+ in effect on your iPhone, the screen and battery will be replaced for a small deductible.....usually about $29.
You can find a list of authorized shops in your area using this link:

Welcome and thank you for reaching out. 🤗
There appears to be a problem with the internal display panel. Only a certified Apple technician can determine the cause and offer a complete solution.
Therefore, I recommend service.
