@asithandile "it used to ring when I turned it on but it doesn't" common issue that happens when you continue to use water damaged devices.
For now, you must stop continuing to try to charge, sync or otherwise use your phone. This potentially can make a bad situation worse. This may further damage your phone.
The very first step I would take is to disassemble your phone. Since iFixit does not yet have a guide for this phone, use the ones from here. They are written in Spanish. Use a browser that does the translating for you, if needed. Remove the main board and the charging board. You will have to remove all the EMI shields. If you do not remove the shields, you are not cleaning the board.
I personally do no longer clean the charging boards, but I replace those. They are fairly inexpensive and readily available at many places. By replacing it I always have a known-well starting point should further troubleshooting become necessary.
Take a careful look at all components and connectors. Look for major corrosion, evaluate the pins in the connectors etc., Take a look at all connectors as well as cable ends. . Once you got any gross contamination cleaned, use 90%+ isopropyl alcohol and clean your parts some more. For a proper cleaning, use this guide. It was written for an Apple iPhone 3G but all the steps are still pertinent to your phone as well. I can not stress the importance of a good cleaning enough, so do it over and over while replacing the alcohol after each cleaning.
The importance here is the cleaning. It would of course be best to get it ultrasonically cleaned Do not forget to replace the battery. This is a must and not an option. It will fail if you do not take care of it now.
After that, reassemble your phone and re-evaluate. For as long as you have not cleaned your board and replaced the battery, everything is just a guess. Keep in mind that water damage is the hardest to troubleshoot and to repair. It does not matter if is was exposed for 2 seconds or 2 hours, what matters is where the water (particulates) did the damage.

Best case is disassembling this phone, removing the battery, using a can of air or low pressure air to blow away remaining water, leaving this disassembled phone in the sun, on top of a water heater or stove with pilot light, to allow warmth to evaporate remaining water in all the nooks and crannies. Let parts dry out over several hours or overnight. Hopefully this was water only and not soda or dirty water containing that may short circuit electronics.
