Why is it hard to breathe when i eat spicey food?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Too hot: Spicey food can create too much internal heat and that can make you feel like it is hard to breathe. You may also be having an allergic reaction (not as likely). Either way your body is telling you to lay off the spicy stuff.
