You are referring to the SIDE button on the Apple Watch. Depressing this button once will open up the Control Center. I understand that you are unable to depress the SIde button because it is "jammed".

I recommend that you get your Apple Watch examined at the Apple Store 👉 Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options or at an Authorized Service Center for further diagnosis and evaluation.
