Rinsing? As in under a stream of water? If your lens mechanism has not started to rust, take it quickly to your local camera repair store. Since there seems to be some clouding in the lens, I am guessing that something has entered into the lens itself, so it will have to be completely cleaned. Be sure having it repaired does not cost more than buying a newer updated camera.

Send it to the manufacturers Authorized Service Center and ask for an estimate. If you've damaged it - dropped it, getting it wet - repairs will be at your expense. It will likely be cheaper to buy a new camera than to have yours repaired.

It's dangerous for you to take out your lens. the first step is to try cleaning the lens with a soft cloth.
