Default Brake flush

recently did a brake flush on my car . Wasn't able to flush driver side front wheel since nothing came out . The brakes got hard over time pushing out the air but when i turn on the car the brake pedal feels squishy but when turned off its hard as a rock . Any explanation ? And is that normal

Need more info, how exactly did you flush the fluid? Be specific.

you must solve the drivers side issue. When you say nothing comes out, is that with hard push on the pedal and bleeder cracked open?
