Garlic Ear Mishap Lands RHOBH Star in Urgent Care

Brandi Glanville, known from "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," recently experienced an urgent care visit due to a viral TikTok trend. The 53-year-old reality star attempted to alleviate cold symptoms by placing a garlic clove in her ear, a method suggested by online trends. The clove became lodged, forcing her to seek medical attention for its removal.

Glanville shared the incident on her podcast, detailing how the attempt to clear her sinuses led to the painful mishap. She cautioned others against blindly following online advice, noting that her son had found success with a similar method in his nostril. This ear incident interrupted her Easter holiday.

This recent event follows a year of significant health concerns for Glanville. In the past year, she experienced facial paralysis and swelling, initially diagnosed as stress-induced angioedema. After extensive medical investigation and significant expense, she discovered her issues stemmed from ruptured breast implants, a problem that had plagued her for some time and led to hospitalization.
