The most common signs of a flexor tendon injury include: An open injury, such as a cut, on the palm side of your hand, often where the skin folds as the finger bends. An inability to bend one or more joints of your finger. Pain when your finger is bent.

The force and pressure of the ring being pulled can strip off and damage finger tissues, including muscles, tendons, and bones.

A ring avulsion injury is sustained by a sudden force pulling a ring from a finger. This can result in severe injury ranging from circumferential soft-tissue laceration to complete amputation.

A ring could be too small, arthritis in joints can cause swelling, as can fluid retention, or warm weather could all be contributing factors. Over time, your fingers can also become larger on a ring if it is rarely removed, causing it to become stuck.

How is it treated?

1. reattaching the skin.
2. skin grafts using skin from other parts of the body.
3. reattachment of a finger or toe.
4. amputation.

Occlusion dermatitis is often the result of a buildup of soap, moisture, or debris underneath a ring. After you wear a ring for an extended period of time, soaps and lotions, as well as dead skin, can build up on the settings, in the crevasses of your ring or band, and on the surface of the metal.

Use rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) for pain and swelling. Do not use your injured hand or wrist for the first 24 hours after an injury, if possible. An elastic bandage can help decrease swelling.

Typical symptoms after a fall or injury to the finger that catches the ring include: 1 Swelling of the finger 2 Redness or bruising around the finger 3 Numbness and tingling down the finger

It occurs when a rash is present under the band of your ring and is highly noticeable when your ring is removed. The rash is typically not the result of a new ring being introduced to the skin, but happens after years of wearing the jewelry.

The injury is often referred to as degloving because several layers of skin may be completely torn away, revealing the bones and tissues underneath. Specifically, a ring avulsion happens when the ring suddenly crushes into the finger and is ripped away—pulling the finger’s skin tissues off with it.

A ring avulsion injury occurs when a ring worn on the finger is forcefully pulled away from the finger causing damage to the soft tissues of the finger. Often times, the injury looks minor, perhaps little or no skin injury, but the extent of the injury may be much more severe.
