iPod touch home button not working

I was just using my iPod and it was working fine. The home button just randomly got stuck. It's been like this for hours. It was stuck like not moving, and I looked online and used the "Hold and Blow" method and it has regained the majority of its clickability, but it still doesn't function/work.

iPod touch, iOS 6.1.3
