19. Provide supplemental information here

B - Possible Itching is not expected to be generalised but rather be linked to the application site. However, may be a consequence of the uncomfortable feeling caused by the applied product. Whereas skin reaction at application site, e.g. scratching may occur in sensitive animals, would not expect wound development directly related to product. However, likely linked to scratching at application site which caused skin lesion by self-trauma. Considering consistent time to onset, a product connection is deemed to be possible.
