If you're sitting at the computer and it's just not working, get up and do something else. No use stewing in it. I volunteer for Angel Flight West and the Civil Air Patrol, so I have lots of opportunities to do something else and I'm often relieved to get back to work, and often the block has worked itself out while my mind is occupied with other stuff.
Talking over a stuck scene with my wife or another published author helps. Re-reading the manuscript and the outline helps too. Whatever the solution, try not to panic over a block. All writers get them, and they eventually work themselves out.
