TL;DR
- A Galaxy Ring user says the battery swelled while the device was on their finger, leaving it stuck and painful.
- The user was denied boarding a flight and had the ring removed in the hospital using ice and medical lubricant.
- Photos of the ring after it was removed show a visibly distorted battery.
Update 2: October 1, 2025 (04:28 AM ET): The affected user, Daniel, shared another update, showing off their finger after the ring removal. There are some small marks, which the user is confident will heal in some time.
