If you ever find yourself with a ring that won't come off your swollen fingers, grab some Windex, lubricate the area around your ring below your knuckle, and slowly wiggle your ring around until it slides past your knuckle.

No Windex in your home? You can try a number of other slippery household items such as butter, olive oil, peanut butter, soap and water, baby oil, and more.

You can also try soaking your hand in cold water, elevating your hand above your head or wrapping your finger in dental floss before unwinding the ring off your hand.
