OMG, How Can I Get a Stuck Ring Off of My Finger?
Rings can become stuck for all sorts of reasons. Usually, trauma to the finger or slow weight gain over time is the culprit. In many cases, the application of patience and a few tricks can remove a stuck ring, although you may have to cut a ceramic ring off. Then I will tell you some simple things to remove the stuck ring safely. Please be patient to follow the following steps.
General Method
1.Place your index finger gently on the stuck ring, and thumb under, then start twisting the tungsten ring gently back and forth, while slowly pulling the never wear ring out.
2.Make sure that you don’t pull and tug too much. It could cause additional swelling and make it even harder to remove the tungsten ceramic ring.
Lubricant Method
1.Use something slippery. Plenty of skin-safe household items can be used as lubricants to get the ring off in one piece and with minimal damage to skin. Ammonia-based cleaners such as Windex often work best. If the skin is broken or cut, choose your lubricant wisely. Otherwise, try any of these, using a generous amount at least as far as the knuckle. These are some thing you can use as lubricants.
Vaseline
Windex or other window cleaners
(professional jewelers often use this and make sure its safe on skin read the bottle first)
Hand lotion
Hair conditioner/shampoo
Petroleum jelly or antibiotic ointment
(the best choice if the skin is broken)
Cooking spray, soft butter, or cooking oil
Shortening (lard)
Peanut butter -smooth, not chunky!! (may be a little sticky but works to get the ring off)
Soap and water
Baby Oil
RingRelease
2.Gently move the ring
Move the engraved ring around, getting some of the lubricant underneath. Turn the unique ring around the finger a time or two, and spray or rub more lubricant on as well. Gently pull the ring off the finger, working it back and forth and turning it as you go, as necessary.
Elevation Method
Elevate the arm. If you still can’t remove the tungsten carbide ring, try elevating the arm above shoulder level for a few minutes.
Cold Water Method
Dip the hand in cool water. Have you noticed that your rings fit more loosely on cool days than hot ones? Place the hand in cool, but not ice cold, water and leave it there for a few minutes. It need not be painful to leave your hand in the water.
Dental Floss Method
1.Slip one end of the dental floss under the jewelry band ring. If necessary use a needle to get the dental floss under the unusual ring.
2.Wrap around the finger. Wrap the dental floss around your finger, up to your knuckle. Wind snugly, but not so tightly that you cause pain or turn the finger blue. Unwind it if it’s too tight.
3.Unwind the dental floss, beginning at the bottom of the finger. As you unwind the dental floss from the bottom, your ring will move up your finger until you can get it off.
4. If the ring only goes partially off: Repeat the two previous steps from the rings current position.
After You Get the Ring Off
Clean the area where the ring was and tend to any other injuries. Don’t put the ring back on until it has been resized or the swelling has gone down.
Notice Tips
1.Don’t worry about getting your ring cut off, if you need to. It takes seconds, does not hurt at all, and rings are very easy to repair. Don’t damage your hand with a badly fitting ring—just go to the a hospital, fire station or good jeweler. They will all remove it for you.
2.Take a long, cold shower or go outside if it’s cold, to drop your body temperature. Don’t overdo it, of course.
3.This works well when you need to remove your ring from fingers that are puffy in the morning.
4.Get your ring size measured if you haven’t lately. It may change as you gain or lose weight or simply as you age. Any jeweler should have a set of sizing rings.
5.If your ring had to be cut off, any worthwhile jeweler should know to wait at least two weeks before sizing your finger, so that your finger has time to heal.
6.Always have the ring finger bent slightly as this reduces “bunching” of skin on the knuckle and therefore makes the knuckles slightly smaller.
7.As the ring reaches your knuckle, press it against and move it as far up the joint on the inside as possible. This makes it much easier to then pull the ring over the knuckle on the top of your finger.
8.If the ring isn’t stuck too tightly, here’s a simple way to get it off with another person’s help. Usually what gets rings stuck is the skin getting bunched up between the ring and knuckle, so if you can flatten the skin out there’s a good chance the ring will pop off relatively easily. Simply get someone to pull your skin behind the ring back towards your hand, while you pull the ring off
9.If you must cut the ring off yourself, here’s how. Try to get a Popsicle stick or some toothpicks between the womens ring and the skin to protect the finger. Slowly and carefully use a needle file to cut a groove through the ring. Needle files are available at any hardware store.
10.Be patient. Don’t panic if you can’t take the ring off right away. It may take time and a couple of different approaches.
11.If you have tried every possible way to take the titanium ring off and you still can’t, take a metal filer of some sort and start to file a side of a ring. It may take some time to do that, but by the time there is a gap in the ring you could stretch out each side and take it off.
