If you can't remove the lens filter, it's a good idea to use rubber gloves.
When I tried to remove the lens filter and lens hood to clean the Canon EF-M22mm F2 STM, I couldn't remove them...orz
It looks like I've tightened it too tightly...
I wouldn't want it to break if I put too much force into it...

After a while, I remembered the rubber gloves I had bought at a 100 yen store and immediately put them on my hands.
Be careful not to rub the filter part with the rubber, and apply pressure counterclockwise.
It came off fairly easily.
After all, your grip strength will be much greater than with your bare hands.
The rubber gloves I had on hand this time are rather stiff, but it might be useful in case of an emergency if you keep a set of thinner, pitchier ones in your bag.
However, when it comes to rubber gloves, they range from pins to fins
