Is it making a groaning noise? The power steering fluid reservoir might be empty. Very low tire pressure also causes hard steering.

HARD AND STIFF STEERING

It won't hurt to drive it. Steering will just be stiffer without the power steering. Once you are moving, it will be easier to steer.
Don't know the problem, a shop will have to check it out. But it is okay to drive it.
