The 53\u2011year\u2011old reality TV personality revealed the mishap on her own podcast, <strong>Unfiltered<\/strong>, and warned fans against following questionable health tips found online.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-happened-on-easter-sunday\">What Happened on Easter Sunday?<\/h2>\n<p>During the April 9 episode of <strong>Unfiltered<\/strong>, Glanville recounted a bizarre chain of events that began with a simple cold. Her 18\u2011year\u2011old son, Jake, had caught a chill, and her 22\u2011year\u2011old son, Mason, suggested a \u201chealth hack\u201d that involved using garlic to clear sinuses. Garlic is often touted in wellness circles for its antibacterial properties, but the method Mason described was far from conventional.<\/p>\n<p>Glanville explained that she first tried to insert a clove of garlic into her nostril, only to feel a burning sensation that was too intense. In a moment of desperation, she moved the garlic to her ear, hoping to relieve congestion. Unfortunately, the clove slipped deeper into her ear canal, becoming lodged and causing discomfort.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was just trying to clear my sinuses. It\u2019s online. Don\u2019t listen to people online or TikTok or Instagram or Twitter or Facebook,\u201d she cautioned, reflecting on how quickly misinformation can spread.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-urgent-care-experience\">The Urgent\u2011Care Experience<\/h2>\n<p>Despite several attempts to remove the garlic at home, Glanville found the clove was firmly stuck. She decided to seek professional help the following day, heading to an urgent\u2011care center in Los Angeles. The medical staff performed a gentle examination and used specialized instruments to retrieve the garlic without causing further irritation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn Easter, I didn\u2019t do anything because of my garlic in my ear,\u201d she said. \u201cEvery time I tried to get it out, it really went down further. And I had to go to urgent care the next day and get it taken out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After the procedure, Glanville joked that she now had \u201cgarlic in my brain,\u201d a humorous way to describe the lingering memory of the incident.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"beyond-the-garlic-a-history-of-health-challenges\">Beyond the Garlic: A History of Health Challenges<\/h2>\n<p>Glanville is no stranger to public discussions about her health. In 2023, she began dealing with a persistent facial infection that she attributed to a parasite she claimed had developed from ruptured breast implants. While the medical community has not widely corroborated her specific diagnosis, she has been vocal about her ongoing struggles and the impact on her daily life.<\/p>\n<p>Her openness about these issues has earned her a dedicated following, but it also underscores the importance of seeking reliable medical advice rather than relying on unverified online remedies.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"key-takeaways-for-anyone-facing-a-similar-situation\">Key Takeaways for Anyone Facing a Similar Situation<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Seek professional help early:<\/strong> If a foreign object becomes lodged in the ear, waiting can increase the risk of infection or damage.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Avoid self\u2011treatment with irritants:<\/strong> Garlic, essential oils, or other substances can cause burns or allergic reactions<br \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Brandi Glanville, the former star of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills , recently found herself in an unexpected medical situation that landed her at an urgent\u2011care clinic.
