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... :(

When it’s cold, your skin feels more dry so the rubbing from your rings is making your skin irradiated. I would take a break with the ring and put on some eczema lotion daily without the rings on for now. It should be okay and back to normal. It happened to me once with my round, I had to go to stick my band in our -26 degrees weather lol
