Have you given the screen a good clean, it may be a bit greasy and this and water can play havoc with screen sensitivity/basic functions.

I work out in all weathers on a motorbike and need to track people using my phone, but this just doesn't function when wet, you touch the screen and anything can happen, other apps open etc.

Turn the phone off, give it a really good clean and then try again, I tend to use hot breath and a glasses cleaning cloth to clean my phone or Surface screen.
