Brief Answer:
Irritation to chillies

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
Chillies are known to cause irritation as well as allergic reaction. In case of irritable bowel syndrome these allergies become more prominent.
It is better to avoid chillies.
If you still have swelling of lips, take an antihistamine tablet and apply triamcinolone oral gel twice daily for a week.
This should help you.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
