Magnetic implant questions
Hi I am seriously considering self implanting a pair of magnets into my hands but I have numerous questions on the subject that I need answered before I slice myself open XDD.
First off I have always been interested in this topic of biohacking and I have a personal condition where I do not feel any pain. All of these factors have led me to seriously considering self implanting magnets. I am a left handed person for most things like writing but when it cones to physical activities I prefer my right. This leaves me confused about which hands/fingers I should implant and which I should leave alone. Second I am in possesion of the magnets already but I have yet to bioproof them. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions about what I should use. Finally I am a golfer and before I even consider taking the next step I need to know if the implants will hinder me out on the course.
Thank you all so much for any help or advice you share with me. :^)

In your case, I'd suspect the left hand is likely a better choice than the right. I'm guessing your preferred physical activities are harder on your hands than everyday activities.
All of this assumes you're implanting small disc magnets. Cylinders are a whole other thing and since I do not have any (yet), I can't comment. I've also heard of some people with magnets in the wrist that feel like it works well for them, so that might be something to explore as well, though again, I've no personal experience there.
As to bioproofing, there are a number of coatings in use right now, but unless you're dead set on using the magnets you've already acquired, I would look into getting some TiN-coated magnets from dangerousthings.com. They really are the best around. Titanium nitride is a very tough coating and lab tests have shown it to score exceptionally well in all areas of concern (cytotoxicity, fouling, etc.). Designed by grinders for grinders. Read more about them here.
