I have never seen this problem in Forum before. Can you try clicking on on the lock and seeing if it will unlock? Is there any kind of unlock button?

If worse come to worse, you might just have to repost your discussion.

Are you sure you locked it and it wasn't locked by the admin?  If it's locked by admin, it can't be unlocked by a regular user.

The same way you locked it.  The button you clicked on to lock it should now say unlock and you can unlock it.

I have not heard of this before but I am sure it will happen to me one day. Hopefully not anytime soon.

Yes it makes sense to repost a new topic, if you are unable to unlock it...

Hmmm that's weird. Can you tell us what topic it was so we can check and see if it's locked for everyone?  Sure seems like you should've been able to unlock it yourself if you're the one that locked it.

OK so I did some "digging" and found it myself, then saw this is what it says for "locked topics". .....  "
Locked Topic
Topics on the Community Forum are locked for one of several reasons:
The topic has received no replies for 270 days (9 months)
The topic is inflammatory or violates the rules
The topic contains inaccurate information or bad advice
A moderator or administrator locked it for another reason
Use caution relying on information you found in a locked topic."

So it doesn't appear to me that you could've locked it yourself, but I dunno.
