Issue with Nexus 7

[M1grande]

Hello everyone, I recently got a Nexus, and from day 1 it has had an issue where it seems to think I am touching it. It will constantly click on a certain part of the screen, until I lock it and then unlock it. is there a name for this, and more importantly a fix or prevention method? It's not horrible, but I would like to solve it before it worsens

Have you tried rebooting? And do you have a case that might be impinging on part of the screen?

I have rebooted it a few times, and It helps for awhile, but I don't have my case yet

This happened to another tablet I have. After I cleaned the screen with a moist tissue and dried it with a microfiber towel the problem went away.
