I'm not really sure why this is happening so I thought I'd reach out to you all. I've been engaged for 6 months now and I haven't taken my engagement ring off for the majority of that time. Over the course of the winter, I noticed it was a tiny bit large (in that the ring would spin frequently and I'd have to correct it all of the time or there would be a gap). I figured I'd wait until the summer to get it resized to make sure it wasn't just that my cold hands were making it too big.
Well now, it's still slightly too big, but I've got a line along the palm-side of my ring finger where my ring hits and a little above of raw, blistered skin that's sensitive to the touch. It hurts to wear my ring now! I'm not sure what to do! I did some searching online and most people who have problems with their engagement rings have dermatitis and rash -- but I don't have a rash. Just raw, cracked skin.
Any advice? Is this from my ring sliding around on my finger? What else could cause this??
