Take the back off put the phone in a bag of rice and let it sit for a few days.

Take the battery out or cool it down. If it doesn't want to start up anymore, then have the unit replaced or buy a new one. Sorry about your phone

You have a major problem! You probably have to replace the phone with another -- see your retailer.

While water problems occur with all phones, the iPhone's battery cannot be quickly removed after a water incident to preclude permanent electronic failure. Many times, removing the battery and letting the hardware "dry out" for days, then replacing the battery, works. But not with Apple's perverted notion of keeping the battery compartment inaccessible.

leave it in a bag of rice for few days it might work after that, worth trying i think.
