How to remove a ring from swollen finger. 10 Ways to Remove a RING from A SWOLLEN Finger

10 Ways to Remove a RING from A SWOLLEN Finger 1. Do not pull, but twist Try to remove the ring by gently scrolling it on your finger. As if it were a nut on a thread. Just don’t pull too hard and don’t twist if the ring refuses to turn. It does not work — go to the next method. 2. Raise your hand above the level of the heart For example, put it on your shoulder for 10-15 minutes. This method reduces the flow of blood and lymph to the finger. As a result, the swelling may become less, and the ring will be removed without extra effort. 3. Dip your hand or swollen finger into cold water Under the influence of cold, the vessels narrow. This improves the outflow of blood and lymph from the swollen finger. Puffiness becomes less, which means it will be easier to remove the decoration. To enhance this effect, first immerse your finger in cold water for a few minutes, and then raise your hand above the heart level for another 3-5 minutes — as described above. 4. Tighten the skin Removing the ring is sometimes hindered by skin folds that gather at the joint. Ask someone close to pull your skin under the upper phalanx and joint. 5. Lather your finger Don’t spare the soap. It will create a slippery film on the surface of the skin and thus reduce the friction between the finger and the inner surface of the ring. 6. Use scotch tape This is a more advanced version of the previous method. Take an ordinary transparent tape and wrap it around your finger from the nail to the ring. If possible, try to put the edge of the tape under the decoration. Now lather your hand well. Twisting the ring, gently pull it towards the nail. As soon as the tape is under it, the decoration will slip off your finger. 7. Wind a thread around your finger This method is recommended by Lifehack from the rescuers of Mari El: how to quickly remove the ring from a swollen finger with a thread / YouTube rescue service employees. It can help if other methods didn’t work. You will need a paper clip and a strong thin thread about 1 m long. As well as a little patience. Take a paper clip and thread a thread through it, stretching it about 10 cm. Some recommend using a needle instead of a paper clip to thread the thread under the ring. But it’s dangerous: you may accidentally puncture the skin and thus increase the swelling of the finger. Remove the paper clip from the thread — it has completed its task. Now hold the short end of the thread with the thumb of the hand on which the ring is worn. And with the other hand, tightly wind the long end between the decoration and the joint. The part of the finger below the ring, closer to the nail, will swell even more in the process. Don’t worry, it’s okay. After you have almost completely wound the long end of the thread on your finger, fix the rest of it between the middle and ring fingers. With the freed hand, take the thread by the upper end and begin to gently pull it out from under the ring, turning it around your finger. As you pull out the thread, the ring will slowly move towards the nail. A little patience and it will slip off your finger. - Subscribe to new videos: - My second channel: - Vkontakte group - Advertising on the channel: - MOCKING Coca-Cola: - All delicious recipes are here: - Interesting experiments here: - All Life Hacks: Thanks for the likes and subscription!!!
