it could just be bacteria or something that got up in there. Try using some diaper rash cream on it. I know this sounds wierd but it tends to get rid of thoes skin rashes well.

The same thing happens to me. The doctor said it's a chemical reaction with cleaning products. You need to take your rings off when you use them. Air is the best thing to heal the rash but you can use some topical rash ointments too if you like. Now my friend had this happen to her & was told she was allergic to gold. The doctor said she needed to wear platinum. Great news for her husband! LOL

Yay! I'm not the only one lol j/k
Seriously though, this happens to me sometimes too. No real reason that I could ever figure but I find that taking the ring off for the day it usually goes away. Its probably irritation with something, like chemicals. Or the ring could just be rubbing your skin wrong.

You are probably allergic to the metal. Sometimes it doesn't always show up right away. A Dermatologist can test you to see. Maybe too soap is getting under the band and not being completely rinsed off under it.

paint the inside of the ring with clear polish. the metal is wearing down and you are probably allergic.
im allergic and have done this trick before. replace as needed.

It's a sign. It's telling you get out while you still can!
