19. Provide supplemental information here

B-Possible: Paresthesia at the application site may reflect local dermal sensitivity to the product. Itching on other than the application site is not expected after product application. If any, signs would be localized at the application site. Inguinal rash is not expected either. Even though time to onset is unknown, considering application site involvement and that same signs occurred after every application, a product connection is deemed to be possible.
