My Apple Watch Series 6 will not charge for hours on end, it shows the green lightning bolt but doesn't charge. It is currently dead. What can I do to restart it?

Apple Watch 6 will not charge My Apple Watch does not charge if the battery is completely drained. The red lightning bolt turns to green but still does not charge. I have tried to reset it by pressing the crown and side button at the same time but the Apple symbol does not appear. I have tried various chargers. Occasionally when this occurs it comes back to life and charges but it seems to be a problem when the battery runs completely flat. Any help appreciated!

My Apple watch series 6 shows it's charging but won't actually charge. My Apple watch series 6 shows it's charging but won't actually charge. I kept it on the charger for 24 hours with it showing the green lightning bolt on the screen but as soon as I took it off the charger, it just kept switching back to the red lightning bolt and won't turn on. Won't force restart either.
