How do I stop silver plated rings turning my finger green? I am diabetic, and my friend has bought me a lovely ring when she went home to Morrocco, and I have just bought a new one today. Because I am diabetic, the acid in my skin removes the silver plating and then the copper turns my fingers green. What can I put on my finger, or the ring to help prevent this. I should have made myself I bit clearer on my question. I am unable to wear any silver jewellery unless it is 99.9% silver. Silver plate and sterling silver gets tarnished or comes of the jewellery very quickly. In the past I have been told that it is because of my diabetes it happens. My skin is more acidic. I am sorry if I worried anyone into thinking they may have diabetes because the same thing happens to them. I was not clear on my question. I hope I have provided full clarity
