There's no work around you have to bleed all the air from the brake system, probably all four calipers. Spray the stuck bleeder screw with WD40 or equivalent rust buster type of chemical spray. Use a box end wrench not the open end side for maximum contact. Better yet use a six point box end or six point deep socket. If for some reason the bleeder screw strips or breaks the replace the caliper.
