Can topically applied testosterone cream cause hand pain (palmar aspect)?

Let me explain: Topical testosterone is absorbed through the skin and can cause symptoms of male features in a woman or child who comes into contact with the medication. One of the side effects of this application is redness, itching, burning, or hardened skin where the skin patch is worn.

Probably not: If somebody is allergic to the cream's delivery vehicle, then all bets are off.
