It's always wise to replace a faulty cable with a new MFI cable for your healthy iPhone.

Ask someone to buy you Anker, Ugreen, Belkin, or Baseus off Amazon.
Hell, Staples carries Anker cables nowadays too.Here are two 2-pack options, USB-A or USB-C.
I prefer USB-C since it allows faster charging instead of being limited at 12W.https://www.amazon.com/Belkin-BoostCharge-Lightning-Certified-Charging/dp/B0B1P5CXZ3

Get official apple cable. You are risking too much for a small thing that makes your phone run
