Blue vertical lines on my iPhone 5s? Changing digitizer? Screen not functioning?

I dropped my 5s in the pool but picked it up as fast as I could. It was still functioning properly after the incident but only for a day. The next day, blue vertical lines started appearing and sometimes red ones appear between the blue ones. Whenever I touch my screen, nothing happens. So the screen stopped functioning but the volume, home and lock button works still.

Question is, will changing the digitizer (or some people call it the touchscreen) fix this problem? If not, how can this be fixed?

Your phone is not repairable, once the phone was "wet" you needed to turn it off until it was completely dry. Hope you more careful with your next phone

  • Why does my iPhone 5s have multiple vertical lines running across it? The lines have appeared a couple weeks ago and I thought nothing of it. The lines are enabling me from being able to tap certain places on the screen. Also, the phone occasionally spazzes out and presses random places on the screen… More and more lines are appearing daily… Please help!
