There are quite a few situations where you might need to get a ring or piece of jewelry removed from your finger right away. That’s why we offer stuck ring removal services at MHP Urgent Care in Warren.

Our on-site high-tech equipment allows us to remove the ring safely and with minimal damage so that you can ultimately have it resized by your favorite jeweler if you wish.

“If you ever find yourself in a situation where you finger becomes swollen come see us right away,” said Dr. Sanford Vieder, physician/owner of MHP Urgent Care. “Don’t wait until the swelling becomes so severe that it threatens the circulation in your finger.”

“There are several medical conditions that could cause your finger to swell,” said Dr. Vieder. “Any type of injury or blunt trauma to the finger, an infection, pregnancy, progressing arthritis, exposure to excessive heat, an allergic reaction or a high-salt diet. If a ring becomes too tight it can cut off the blood supply, causing swelling that leads to numbness and nerve damage and could potentially lead to permanent tissue damage or amputation if not addressed quickly,” said Dr. Vieder.

Having the Dolphin Ring Rescue on site is one of the many ways that MHP Urgent Care is serving the Warren and Madison Heights communities with exceptional urgent care services.
