Fuel *CAP* not opening

Hey guys so I got a little problem that I thought I could use a little help with...My 7th gen won't let me open its fuel cap, the fuel door opens fine I'm talking about the inside cap where you turn counterclockwise to open, it's not coming off and I'm low gas I gotta go somewhere on Wednesday ! Any help would be appreciated!

Odd problem, but one I had back in the late 90s. Try continuous pressure (pushing) on the cap while twisting.

Ya, kinda like a medicine bottle. If that won't work, I'd say hit up your dealer. Let one of their techs start pushing and pulling a little harder on it and try to figure it out.
