Touch screen not responding

Kin1 — Fri, 28 Feb 2014 03:20:32 GMT

The go back symbol on my phone does not respond to touch, at all. This means I can only use the home symbol to get out of a screen/ page, but it takes me back to home, not just one step back. Then when I open for eg Facebook again, it takes me to the screen i tried to get out of!! very frustrating! What is the problem? Can it be fixed? My phone is only a year old. model no ST27i

regards
