Improving magnet movement
Hey guys,
I wanted to run a problem by some of the people with magnet experience. I've had a couple large cylinders in my ring fingers for a while, (a few years,) and the one in my dominant hand has seen a lot of use while the other one not so much. Now I'm trying to do a little more with them both and was wondering why the left seems so much weaker than the right (they are identical magnets done at the same time.) Upon some inspection, it appears my left magnet is "stuck." That is, there's tissue built up around it that prevents it from rotating in any direction, so it's tricky for me to pick things up or do much with that finger.
On my right hand the implanted magnet will rotate freely- if I move a large magnet around my finger the implanted one will rotate to face it, flipping this large magnet over next to my finger will cause my finger magnet to flip over, etc. When I attempt this on my left hand the implanted magnet will move a little but not complete a full rotation, and it's uncomfortable when the magnet is trying to rotate too much.
My question is is there any way to improve the movement of the magnet in my left ring finger? I'm tempted to use the large magnet to pull the implanted magnet around and break things up, but I'm not sure if that will cause any scarring or other issues.

Can you give information on them like coating or if it was autoclaved.
If it's tissue growing around try massaging it a little but don't do it to the point where it hurts.
Instead of ripping it free, it might let it slowly wiggle its way loose.
All pure guessing though, I have no experience with implanted magnets.
@Birdhandz good idea, but I'm not sure that will work. It still vibrates just fine and has a little movement, such as back and forth, but I can't completely rotate it 180 degrees to reverse the placement of the poles. I'm thinking a magnetic ring like that would only move it back and forth without getting the movement I need.
The left magnet might have kinds bonded with the tissue in your finger, whereas the right may not have made that solid bond.
This would be my first guess. :o
@Meanderpaul @BirdMachine do you know if I can just massage the fingertip with my thumb throughout the day, or does the massaging need to push the magnet in the direction I want it to go?
