Brandi Glanville used an unorthodox at-home remedy for clearing her sinuses and it sent her to urgent care.
The 53-year-old former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star recounted the incident on the April 9 episode of her podcast Brandi Glanville Unfiltered with co-host James Maas.
“It was Easter and I got a piece of garlic stuck in my ear,” she said, recounting how she believes her son, Jake Cibrian, 18, got her sick after visiting her and “sneezing” in her face multiple times.

“I got his cold. And then on Easter, I didn’t do anything because of my garlic in my ear,” Brandi continued, noting that it went deep down the ear canal and resulted in her having to go to urgent care to get it removed.
“I was just trying to clear my sinuses!” she said, adding that she learned about the method online and advised others not to do it.
Brandi warned her listeners not to listen to people online, including on TikTok, Facebook, Twitter, or TikTok.
But she also claims her other son, Mason Cibrian, 22, once put garlic up his nostril to help with his cold and it worked for him.
“I tried my nostril, it was burning too much, so I moved it to my ear,” the Celebrity Big Brother star explained. “It was like burning my skin because I just lasered it.”
James then asks if she would ever consider using the ear candling method to clean out her ears and she said no, but noted that she has previously put olive leaf extract in them.
Brandi has been opening up about how much money she’s spent on her health lately, claiming her ex-husband Eddie Cibrian hasn’t shown “support.”
