Water under iPhone screen. Will it EVER go away

I just got a few drops of water into my phone, which got under my screen and now there are these dark water stains under my screen. Everything else works 100%. Will the watermarks EVER go away?

iPhone 4, iOS 4

I have absolutely no idea. I took it out of my backpack this morning and the screen was stained. It is currently in a box of macaroni (no rice available). I just hope it will go away sometime. I am willing to wait months as long as it will be returned to normal. Since the water doesn't actually soak into the screen, why does the water appear to not move when you shake the phone. Logically, its just floating there. I could always open the phone and sham wow the screen.

i went to a repair store, because mine got wet on the floor, because the sink in my house explode and all the floors were a mess.

they made a cleaning and it cost $25.00

they clean the water but they told me that the water stain will remain there, the other thing to do is buy a new lcd screen which costs $250.00


do the warranty isnt valid if someone opens the phone?
