Phone is not responding to swiping down or holding finger on top of Watch face. Cannot swipe to left either to change to theater mode etc

I have a red dot on top of Watch face that is not responding to swiping down or holding finger on to get to notifications. I also cannot get it to swipe left to get to the mute ringer, theater mode, airplane mode screen.

Control panel not working anymore After I updated my control panel will not show when you swipe up on Apple Watch. I can’t turn on and off my focus or other things easily from my watch anymore. The control panel when you swipe up disappeared. I’ve turned my phone And watch off and reset it. My phone is also having many issues after the 17 update. I have to wait about a minute for my voicemails to show. It’s making some spots go dark.

Can no longer swipe up or down on my Apple Watch SE. Can no longer swipe my SE watch face down to get notifications when there is an orange dot nor swipe up to get control center. What should I do? Also, no longer showing text messages that are on the iphone. [Re-Titled by Moderator]
