Liquid detected after a few days


4 days ago I accidentally left my iPhone 15 in my back pocket during a rain and the charging port got wet. I left it to air dry and after a couple hours it stopped showing me the liquid detection error. It’s been now several days, I’m sure my phone was nowhere near any water or moisture, but it randomly started showing me the error again today anytime I try to plug any accessories/the charging cable.

Put it in a container full of silica gel for at least 24 hours and... cross your fingers.

Is the issue persists, have it inspected at an Apple Store or AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider)
