Brandi Glanville reveals shocking throat ringworm diagnosis from past fling

Brandi Glanville has revealed she may have contracted ringworm in her throat. The reality TV star suspects the infection came from a recent relationship. She admitted she was unaware that ringworm could spread through sexual contact before this experience. Glanville explained that doctors first ruled out other common sexually transmitted infections. Only after those tests came back negative did they consider ringworm as a possibility. The fungal infection can affect the skin, hair, or nails and spreads easily through direct contact.

A friend alerted her to the likelihood of throat ringworm, which can also burrow into the ears if untreated. Glanville believes she caught it from someone in the adult entertainment industry. She noted that the man she dated had only performed oral sex to avoid pregnancy. Due to the contagious nature of ringworm, Glanville now trains makeup artists to check new talent for signs of infection. Severe cases can be particularly stubborn to treat, requiring extended medical care.

Ringworm infections can become serious if left unchecked, especially in sensitive areas like the throat. Glanville’s case highlights how easily the condition can spread through close contact. Doctors continue to monitor her treatment as she recovers.
