What Causes Profuse Sweating On The Scalp After Eating Spicy Food?

in the last couple of years, whenever I eat or cook spicy foods, my scalp sweats profusely. This even happens when I just think about certain foods. These foods are not extreme. They include Italian, Mexican and Chinese. Is this a common problem? If so, is there anything I can do about it?

Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello,

I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your symptoms seem to be related to an autonomic reaction to some types of food substances.

This is a common reaction in sensitive and allergic persons.

So, in my opinion, there is no reason to worry about!

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
