To wonder why my ring finger is so swollen

Evening all,

My ring finger (on left hand) seems to be really swollen. I’ve always had long, slender fingers and my rings have sat comfortably...but now I’m conscious that the rings feel tight and have been for a while, so much so that I’m contemplating how to take them off as I can’t pull them over the knuckle.

I’ve not put on weight; I’ve lost most of my baby #2 weight (10months pp) but I’m mid 40s.

Thank you

Weirdly mine is the same! And knuckle sore when taking off rings. I was wondering if it was fluid

I sometimes catch mine on something and the finger gets swollen, I'm often not even aware that I did it.

I’ve had this. My finger started off a bit itchy, skin becoming cracked, swollen etc

It’s been like it on and off for a year unfortunately. There has been a pregnancy within this, then the early newborn days and a pandemic has meant its never really healed properly due to all the hand washing

I’m almost 6 months pp and it’s still like it

Absolutely no idea what’s wrong though. I’ve got antibiotics for something else so I’m hoping maybe that pulls my finger down as well but I’m not holding out any hope
