Sounds as if it is stuck. Shut off water supply to it and take apart the handle and cartridge. Take the main internal parts to a Plumbing store and get a replacement (made for all faucets) Then install carefully in reverse order to removal.

If water is only drawn from the cold faucet, then no, the water heater is not involved.
