The wood does swell a little if it absorbs moisture. Normally The fit of the wooden part of the tenon in the receiver is a very close fit. Only a small bit of swelling will make it too tight to assemble properly. The metal rings are there to protect and support the wood. The rings rarely cause a problem. Drying the clarinet will ease the problem at least temporarily But it sounds as though you need a repair technician To loosen the fit of the joints a little.
