Default New hamster pees on herself

I’ve adopted a new hamster and she’s so afraid in her new environment that she hides in one spot and only leaves it for water.

It looks like she peed in that spot too and now it’s stuck to her. It made me nervous that it might be wet tail but it looks like only pee and no poop. Also she stays in that same spot.

We’ve been leaving her alone to relax but she still won’t come out and I’ve never had a hamster this afraid before. I want to leave her to relax but I’m afraid it’s not good for her to sit in the same spot and pee there. It’s been 2 days.

Should I give her more time or try to encourage her out of her hiding spot?

Edit: also I have not seen her eat anything since she got here. Idk if she does it when I’m not looking. But she drank water


I’m really scared because I don’t know if it’s wet tail vs. just urine stuck to her
