Door hard to open sticks

Door hard to open sticks
Hey there.
I have a 98 RT 4 door. For some reason the drivers & passengers doors are becoming more and more difficult to open. The back edge kinda higher up near the top is hitting closer or deeper to the weather stripping and take a bit of force to open. The lock operates fine, it opens then I must push a bit harder to free the door from the weather stripping to get to open completely.
Is there a way to fix this or align the door or window glass? The weather stripping looks perfect and seems to fit correctly.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

RE: Door hard to open sticks
you may have to adjust the door.....you can do that by loosening the bolts that hold the hinge to the door....
loosen the bolts....
support the door on a floor jack(with wheels)
then you can close the door almost all the way(not completely because of the jack)
with the jack holding the door up, you can lower or raise it as needed....
when you find the right spot then just tighten the hinge bolts
