Does Baclofen Application Cause Itching On The Skin?

Hi, I started taking Baclofen 10 mg on oct 4th for a pulled leg muscle, it wasn t working so my doctor changed the dosage to 20mg yesterday. I also bought some Tiger Balm ointment and have been using it since yesterday. My skin on my left hand has been itching today. I read that Tiger Balm can make your skin itch and alter your breathing, can Baclofen do the same?
