I often see patients with rashes under their rings, especially during the warmer months. It could be an allergy to nickel or other metal in the ring, or an irritation called contact dermatitis. I never want you to take the ring off entirely, just loosen it, rinse, dry, and slide the ring down the finger. This often prevents or clears up the issue. For more severe cases, a prescription cortisone cream may be necessary.
