Is my ring too small? Help please

Kerry, 27 January, 2023 at 11:13 Posted on Planning 0 2

I am unsure if my ring is too small, I think I have tapered fingers so my knuckle is no bigger than the top of my finger. My engagement ring is currently a K and slides on and off fairly easily, however after wearing for a couple of hours I can really notice I have a ring on (I know that sounds daft but hoping you understand!) it feels uncomfortable and after asking a few of my married or engaged friends they rarely notice they are wearing a ring because its so comfortable to them! Right now my hands are somewhat warm and its feeling too tight, I am worried in the summer its going to be awfully tight. Also my finger sometimes feels colder than the others which does make me think its too tight.


I have already been into the jewellers and tried on the L, their advice was to stick with the K as the L comes off far too easily, but for me it is so much more comfortable. I read on another post a lady said she was feeling a bit claustrophobic about her ring being too small and that's why she doesn't wear rings, and I think I feel the exact same! I am hoping there is someone reading this post with tapered fingers with the same dilemma who can tell me what to do!!


Also I should mention I am not really wanting to have it resized at the moment, I feel its far too early to be messing about with the ring like that at this stage! Any advice is welcomed! Thanks for reading Smiley smile

    My ring feels different on my hand depending on the time of day/the weather. In a morning it's usually a lot tighter but then during the day it feels really loose and sometimes even spins right round so the stone is underneath haha! if you are feeling claustrophobic i would perhaps go for a bigger size, and you can get these little plastic things on Amazon that go around your ring, like a temporary resizer that might be good for when it's feeling a little bit looser x

    I use the ring adjuster AJX mentions, as mine is too big, but de to medical conditions my hands swell up and down all the time so these are great as you can just pull it off if it swells too much, where as re sizing is permanent and you would have to cut it off . you don't feel them after a day or so and you can replace as they get dirty but really cheap to buy on amazon and come in different sixes so you can find the perfect fit
