Chili's

Can chilis make your tonsils swell?

Im partial to eating chili's, raw and cooked, but it seems to be occuring more and more that when I eat chili's either whole or in food the next morning I wake up with swollen tonsils.

Over last weekend I ate a couple of raw chili's and on sunday morning my tonsils were swollen but not red and sore. lastnight i had a little bit of chili and my tonsils were a little swollen.

Could I be allergic to chili's? is this something to worry about? is this normal?

Following a logical progression from something that seems to happen: if you have your tongue pierced, you're warned against eating hot curries because your tongue can swell up -> your tonsils swelling could be a symptom of a problem with your tonsils.

Having too much chilli does strike me as something to be careful of as from my understanding, they do contain toxins and can lead to ulcers. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Excessive chilli consumption can make you st a lot.
