The obvious answer would be to take it to a repair person!
Examine the joint and verify that the problem is a tight cork, rather than wood interfering with wood.
If there is a build-up of dirt and grease, remove as much cork grease as you can using a dry paper towel. Apply a light coat of fresh cork grease, and see if the problem is solved.
If it becomes obvious that the cork is just too thick, you may be able to reduce it by wrapping some fine sandpaper around the cork and twisting. Be VERY careful that you don't take too much off.
