Samsung S6 States overheating when charging, how can I fix this?

[AC Question]

Samsung S6 States overheating and when charging

all of a sudden an overheating icon displayed on my Samsung. closed apps etc. still displaying. Turned phone off and back on but still same message.
I had to charge my phone and when on or off it wouldn't charge due to overheating. My battery drained and again tried to charge with no luck, but this time instead of the normal charge battery display it showed a red exclamation mark in the middle with a red light at the top of the phone. I have tried everything: Power and volume down button, reboot, factory reset and still same message when charging. I have no idea what to do and not sure if this can be resolved.
Please help

Welcome to Android Central! Was the phone actually overheating, or did it feel cool to the touch?

The phone doesn't seem hot. I have tried to charge my phone this morning and still nothing. I now can't access reboot menu

Any recent drops, trauma, or water exposure?

Two weeks back i dropped my Galaxy S6 in the water. it was not working for almost 10 days at all. However, it started working after 10 days absolutely fine for the whole day but when battery drained and i tried to charge it, it didn't get charged. Funny thing is that it worked every other day till yesterday that i got overheating error. I immediately turned my phone off and tried to charge it after couple of hours. but this time it showed the red exclamation mark.
I think there is some water damage with the battery. Any advice would be appreciated.
