        How to Remove a Tight Ring from the Finger如何从手指上取下卡住的戒指
        To remove a tight ring from the finger without pain or trouble, the finger should be first well lathered with soap. It will then be found that, unless the joints are swollen the ring can easily be taken off. If, however, the finger and joints are much swollen, a visit to the jeweller is advisable.想要毫无痛苦，毫不费力的从手指上取下卡住的戒指，首先你应该在手指上涂满肥皂泡。除非你的手指关节发肿了，否则你会发现，戒指可以很轻易的脱下来了，不过，如果你的手指和关节肿的很厉害，建议你去拜访一下珠宝店。
