Why can't I swipe down on my watch, when there is a red dot at top.

I have a red dot at top of my watch face, but I am not able to swipe down to see the message. Can anyone help me with that? Thanks!

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 8

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]
