    They are caused by bacterial infection and not stress or capsaicin, so I sure hope he could claim an injury if their cooks are contaminating food lol

      My understanding is that you are correct in saying the right cause of the condition, but I’m pretty sure the theory of stress contributing to how large they get/how long healing takes is still generally accepted. Capsaicin causing a physical stress response of course, unless you also have nightmares about it or something
