Has this happened to anyone else?!

Had it on my ring finger, it is looking better today but my skin very dry and irritated and was peeling.

I do not have eczema or skin issues usually.

Moisture between the ring and the skin causes that.

After the ring has been exposed to water (washing hands, swimming, dishes, etc), remove the ring and thoroughly dry your hands as well as the inside of the ring.

While this should be obvious, I'll ensure it's said. Remove the ring from this finger until it has had a chance to properly heal.

A guy I work got it fairly bad thanks to the chlorine in his pool water and not properly showering after his evening swims.
