Why is my phone power button isn't functioning after it got wet 1 week ago?

[AC Question]

My phone fell in water and I placed it in rice, it's been in there for a week now and when I put it to charge, the battery sign comes up showing that it's charging but when I press the power button to come on, it isn't working.

Water damage to phones is progressive, alas. See this:
