A setting that contains a loose gemstone or diamond indicates that the prongs surrounding the embellishment are bent or weak. Don't risk wearing a ring with a damaged setting, since an accidental snag against fabric or a scrape against a hard surface could result in losing a valuable stone. Take your ring to a shop that performs jewelry services to determine what type of repair is needed.
