Hot Water Boiler question

My home is heated via a gas boiler than circulates hot water to radiators throughout the house. Each radiator has two pipes, one at the top and one at the bottom. One of the radiators in not getting hot. I tried turning that screw already to check for air, but no air came out, only water (cold water). I feel that hot water is entering the radiator, but only the first "section" is getting hot, the rest of the radiator is cold, even after the boiler is on for an hour, and all the other radiators in the house are hot all the way through. The water intake valve seems to be open too, though it seems to be stuck. Any suggestions? Otherwise, any suggestions for a plumber?
Thanks!

Has that radiator ever worked? You may have the wrong circulator pump or your current one may be failing.
Other than that, I'm suspicious of your "stuck" valve.
