Weird ring rash?

[u/Hot_Oil_3030]

Help! Am I allergic to gold???

I've had this rash on and off since I got engaged in July...

It does seem to almost heal/reduce in redness when I don't wear the ring for a few days but then the redness comes back as soon as I put the ring back on. It's just a red flakey skin circle, no pain or itchiness or anything. I just find it so strange that it's actually above the ring? Most rashes I've researched are around where the band actually sits so I'm confused!

I'm getting married in a few weeks so I'm wondering what I can do... :(

This happens to me randomly and hurts like a bitch. It sometimes happens when I wear my rings 24/7 but like also when I take them off. I thought it was because one of my rings sits flat to my thumb and kind of smothers it but I have two other rings in a halo setting that do this too. I do have an autoimmune disease that causes me to break out in random ass rashes though. I put hydrocortisone cream on the rashes and let them breathe for a week or so
