Apple watch won’t charge/restart

My apple watch died in the middle of the day today, and has not recharged. I have tried a force restart (holding both buttons down for 10sec) and have had no success. There are no cracks/water damage, and the watch itself is hot. Is there another method I could use?

Apple Watch Series 5, watchOS 7

If the watch gets very hot, that may be a sign that there is a hardware problem with the battery. You can try these steps:
