Reality Star Brandi Glanville Speaks Out About Bizarre Health Problems: 'Can Bury Deeply in the Throat, Even Ears'

Reality television personality Brandi Glanville has revealed a new and concerning health issue, suspecting she may have contracted a fungal infection, specifically ringworm, through oral sex.

“

I have a quick question. Have you heard of sexually transmitted ringworm? I have a feeling I have it... in my throat.

Glanville shared her concerns on her podcast, "Brandi Unfiltered," asking her guest if they had heard of sexually transmitted ringworm, expressing a feeling that she has it "in her throat."

According to the CDC, ringworm is a fungal infection affecting hair, skin, or nails, transmissible through skin-to-skin contact or sexual activity. These infections can be difficult to treat.

It's one of those things that most people don't know how to recognize.

Glanville believes she may have contracted the infection from a man she dated from the adult film industry. She noted that doctors had ruled out common sexually transmitted diseases, prompting her to explore other possibilities. She mentioned that the fungi can reportedly embed themselves deep in the throat and even the ears.

Focusing only on my face because he didn't want to get me pregnant.

This latest health concern adds to Glanville's history of unusual medical problems. In February, she disclosed that a ruptured breast implant had caused facial paralysis, with silicone leaking into her lymph nodes and leading to tooth loss. She reportedly spent $200,000 seeking a diagnosis for these issues. Previously, she required emergency treatment after attempting a viral TikTok trend to cure a cold, which resulted in a garlic clove becoming lodged in her ear.

On Easter I couldn't do anything because I had garlic in my ear. I tried to get it out, but it went deeper so I had to seek medical help the next day.
