Need help with my implant
I'm sure this has been discussed here many times already, but the search on this forum isn't really helpful, so I decided to start a new discussion. So recently I decided to get an NFC implant and upon looking at my hand and the placement of the implant itself I found that there is a blood vessel in the way. I've then considered a different placement on the wrist, but I'm not sure if that's the best idea since there are a lot of blood vessels there as well and I assume it would hurt way more than the usual spot between the index finger and the thumb.
I really want to put it in the usual spot because I feel like it would be the most useful there.
Alternatively I was thinking I could put it here.
What is you opinion?
Where should I put it?
Is there a way to avoid the blood vessel?
Is it actually something I should worry about?

@ShankT has two NFC implants. His first was in the typical location, as is mine. He later went back to get a second on the outside of his pinky finger because the hand webbing was too difficult to scan at his front door. The typical place is easy to scan with a phone though.
What do you want to use your implant for? If it's a portable device, like a phone, the location on your wrist seems like a fine choice but I'm no doctor. If you want building access control then the back of the hand or pinky finger might be a better option. I hope this helps.
I unlock my work computer with an RFID in the knife-edge of my hand so I just have to lay my hand on the reader. In fact, Trybalwolf was the one who pointed me toward the reader I use every day. If that chip were in my wrist I would have to place my reader in a different location or do some serious yoga to get it in place.
It seems like the wrist is a very good choice for you.
