Side button question (alien.top)

I’ve had my apple watch for about 3.5 years. I just noticed the side button under the crown no longer works. There is zero movement when I try to press it. Any thoughts on how to unstick it? I’m not sure I’ve ever used it, but now it’s bothering me.

I have the same issue. My watch is the same age, more or less.

I clean my watch, protector, and band ends with rubbing alcohol once a month. I remove the band and clean the slot that the band slides in.

I will try cleaning under the crown with a slip of paper.
