In hot weather, you involuntarily drink more fluids than you need to. Therefore, it is not surprising when, waking up in the morning, you notice that your favorite wedding ring literally dug into your finger, causing pain. What can be done in this case?
Necessary
- - diuretic;
- - salt;
- - sewing needle;
- - silk thread.
Instructions
Step 1
First, you need to get rid of the swelling. Simple diuretics will help here, in extreme cases - a watermelon. This method is suitable when the finger has not yet turned red, and time is running out.
Step 2
Second, you can make a saline solution by tossing a few tablespoons of table salt into cold water. Place your hand for 5 - 10 minutes in such a bath, then lubricate your finger with liquid soap or sunflower oil, petroleum jelly (whatever will be at hand) and carefully, in a circular motion, try to remove the ring. You can ask family members or your beloved husband to participate in the operation to save your finger in order to hold the skin of the finger, which strives to gather in an accordion in front of the phalanx.
Step 3
Thirdly, there is a tried and tested method that gives an almost one hundred percent guarantee of success. But you really need an assistant to do it. Take a needle, thread the prepared silk thread about 1 meter long into it. Instead of silk thread, you can take iris, or thread with lavsan. Ask your assistant to carefully thread the needle and thread between your finger and the ring, eye first. Pull the thread out of the eye of the needle and pull the end towards the base of your finger. The needle can be removed.
Step 4
Ask the person, while holding the end of the thread at the base of the finger with his left hand, with his right hand, wind your finger in a spiral upward with the rest of the thread, almost to the nail. The coils should lie flat, without overlaps and gaps. Start unrolling the resulting cocoon from the opposite end, pushing the ring slightly with the taut thread. If the ring cannot be removed the first time, repeat the entire procedure from the beginning until you get the expected result. You need to act carefully and carefully so as not to damage the skin.
Step 5
If this does not help, then immediately contact the rescue service or emergency room. There you will be helped to saw the ring and free the swollen finger. Don't be discouraged about a damaged piece of jewelry - your health is worth a lot more. Moreover, in any jewelry workshop, the ring will be repaired - it will be like new.
