Bootcamp partition not mounting on Mac

I recently encountered an issue after spending a few days working in Windows and then switching back to macOS. Now, I'm facing trouble mounting my BOOTCAMP partition in macOS. To my dismay, the BOOTCAMP partition appears as grayed out in Disk Utility, rendering it inaccessible. Whenever I try to mount it, I'm greeted with an error message stating, "The disk BOOTCAMP could not be mounted. Try running First Aid." However, running First Aid is not an option as it's also grayed out and unresponsive. This unexpected behavior has left me puzzled and unsure about the next steps. Previously, I had been able to use the BOOTCAMP partition without any issues.
