In this dream, I was in a library which was inside a converted cathedral. I sat on the top floor at a table and from my vantage point, I saw a guy I work with (whom I will call P) entering the library with a pile of books. I was surprised to see him.
As I went to leave, I spoke to P who told me he could fix the piercing in my left hand. As it happens I had a stud in my left hand (similar to the studs people put in their tongues), but it needed to be cleaned out, and he said he could do it for me. He started by taking removing the stud from my hand, causing clear pus-like fluid to drain out (and there was a lot of it too). After cleaning it, he said it needed to be replaced with a new stud, but my hand would need to be anaethetised. I was reluctant to do this however because I had to drive home. The dream ended as I was explaining this to him.
The unusual thing about this dream (other than the fact that I don't care for piercings at all IRL), was the weird tingling sensation I had in the palm of my left hand when I woke up.
