keyboard not working iphone 12?

recently, the left side of my iphone 12 keyboard has stopped working to the point where i have to press the l,p and backspace key in a very specific way to get them to work. my phone got wet recently but this has not happened with other times it has been wet. i restarted it a few times and made sure all updates were current but the problem persisted. this has become quite the inconvenience

iPhone 12, iOS 17
