Does eating spicy food lead to any health disorders

Does eating spicy food lead to any health disorders?
"Live fast; die young" is a pretty strong concept that stands prevalent in today's world. Everyone keeps telling me how eating very spicy food is bad for my health. Telling me things like that it causes ulcers, or it eats away at my intestines, or that it causes prostate disease. And when I look this stuff up I find absolutely nothing. But, I technically don't find anything that says nothing happens. So I'm here to ask, does a spicy diet lead to any health issues or illnesses?

No. The most it could do is make the liquid in your stomach more violent, but over time yout body will adjust to it. It has also been proven that spicy foods are good in many ways.

Spicy food can cause heartburn, acid reflux, stomach cancer and a few other health problems but apparently it can have some benefits as well such as a laxative effect for those people who suffer from constipation.
