Medical Video: Hold Your Hand Like This, and See What Follows
Of all the complicated problems that exist in the world, one of the most trivial but annoying is to let go of a ring that is small and stuck on the finger. Do not panic! There are many easy tips that you can check to release a ring that is hard to remove from your finger, without having to think about mutilating your hand.
Tips for removing rings from fingers
1. Apply oil on the finger
According to the American Society for Surgery of the Hand, the first way you can remove the ring that is stuck on your finger is to rub it with oil, lotion, butter / margarine, petroleum jelly or soap. These ingredients can make the surface of the finger skin more slippery, making it easier for the ring to be released. In addition, these ingredients can also reduce friction between your ring and finger, thus preventing finger wounds.
After applying one of these ingredients, remove the ring from the finger by rotating it and slowly pulling it up until the ring is successfully released. Don't force the ring to come out if the ring can't get out. You may need to rotate the ring several times until the ring can move forward and release from your finger.
2. Lifting your hands up
Maybe you just heard this way, but there's nothing wrong with practicing it, especially if the ring can't escape because of the swelling of your finger. How to? You just need to raise your hand as high as possible for 5-10 minutes. This is so that the swelling on your finger slightly deflates because the blood flow quickly returns to the heart and then the ring is easily released.
3. Soak your finger in cold water
Try soaking your finger in cold water (not water with ice cubes). And, leave a few minutes until you feel the ring on your finger slightly loosened. After that, slowly remove the ring from the finger. Remember, don't hurt your finger. If it's still difficult, you shouldn't be forced. You can still try other ways.
4. Using threads
Yarn can also be used as a medium to help remove your ring that is stuck on the finger. The trick, tuck the thread from under your ring that is stuck on the finger. If it's difficult, you might need a small needle to slip the thread under the ring. Be careful, don't even hurt your finger.
Next, wrap the end of the thread on your finger (not too tight). Wrap it out to the tip of your finger. Then, pull the thread on the other side around your finger (towards the outside). Gently pull in motion as if the thread is released. This thread movement helps push your ring out of the finger.
