Interesting dream jnt989! Thanks for sharing it.

That you were in the house you grew up in with your sister means the dream was probably about that period of time growing up. We are supposed to be all the people in our dream so your sister was some questioning aspect of you. When did you start scratching/burning? Are you in therapy? Could be you were recently thinking about or working on issues related to these things and questioning them.

I like that you took off the old, soiled bandages and threw them away but it seems like you were disgusted rather than concerned for your feet and wanting to care for them? It is like they are not a part of you, like the bandages, and you do not want to acknowledge them, emphasized by trying to get your sister to shut up and just give you more bandages to cover the problem instead of perhaps turning on the light and discovering what is truly going on and trying to soothe/help it so it can heal completely.

At first I thought your feet were "new" skin and expressed healing because the bandages seemed "opposite" to the impression I got of them without but then you wanted to cover them again and they were oozing and the darkness and problems with your sister, etc.

I do think you are expressing an inner conflict of where-to-go now (and your "feet" would take you there, make you mobile) and that makes you anxious, hence wanting to scratch/burn after you wake.
