Primary	Number of Participants Categorized by Local Tolerability Score by Visit for Each Individual Signs (Erythema, Flaking/Scaling, Crusting, Swelling, Vesiculation/Pustulation, and Erosion/Ulceration) at Day 5	Local tolerability score was evaluated by investigator in terms of presence and absence of erythema, flaking/scaling, crusting, swelling, vesiculation/pustulation, and erosion/ulceration signs and its severity in the areas of body where medication was applied. These symptoms were assessed by using a 4 - point grade scale of 0 - 3, where a score of 0=absent, 1=mild (slightly, barely perceptible), 2=moderate (distinct presence), and 3=severe (marked, intense). The higher score indicates severe symptoms.
