Watch face is stuck

My watch face is stuck on a screen that I could change my view options to either grid view or list view. I currently have it set to list view. I have tried changing it to grid view, there is also an option to cancel, and I have pressed that multiple times with no success. It just seems stuck on this screen and it won’t go away.

Apple Watch Series 7, watchOS 9

You can often force quit an app

Press and hold side button until the Medical ID and SOS screen appears. 

Then press and hold Digital Crown til the clock face appears


Or Force restart the Watch

Hold in Side Button and Crown together until the white apple appears then let go. It should restart to normal.
