During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! this week, the pop star joked: 'I was rolling around on the sidewalk - very glamorous, I know. I caught something!'
She had been recording visuals for her new track Walk of Fame, which
features
in her upcoming album, Something Beautiful, set for release on Friday.
Filming took place back in October, but by the time Thanksgiving rolled around, Miley was in the ICU.
She told Jimmy that emergency departments were overcrowded at the time so she was admitted to intensive care 'just for a moment'.

Recalling the infection had spread to her leg, specifically around the kneecap, she said: 'My leg began to kind of disintegrate.
"The surgeon was like, 'Do you know why you'd have such a brutal infection on your kneecap?' And I had to admit… I was crawling around on the pavement.
'To have a surgeon look at you and say, 'Yuck' - and they cut into actual brains for a living - that's a lot,' Miley added with humour.
Jimmy asked whether the pavement had at least been cleaned beforehand.

While she's back in fine fettle now, the Hannah Montana superstar recently told how another medical issue has rocked her career.
Thankfully, she's since made a full recovery - but it's not the only
health
scare that's affected her music career.
Despite fan demand, Miley hasn't embarked on a headline world tour in over a decade.
While she once blamed it on her tour outfits getting creased (a reason even she admits was flimsy), she's now come clean about the real issue.

Miley explained: 'I have this very large polyp on my vocal cord, which has given me a lot of the tone and the texture that has made me who I am, but it's extremely difficult to perform with because it's like running a marathon with ankle weights on.
'My voice is super-unique because of it, but I do have this Reinke's edema and I have this large polyp on my cords — and I'm not willing to sever it because the chance of waking up from surgery and not sounding like myself is a probability.'

Miley Cyrus got ‘brutal infection' after rolling around on Walk of Fame for film
Miley Cyrus has said she believes that rolling around on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for a new music film led to a 'brutal infection' on her knee. The US singer, 32, who found fame playing Hannah Montana on the eponymous children's show, was filmed lying across part of the historic Los Angeles landmark for her new film, Something Beautiful. 'I filmed this video in October, and by November, at Thanksgiving, I was put in ICU (intensive care unit), for a moment, just for a moment,' she told US chat show Jimmy Kimmel Live! 'But it's mostly because it was Thanksgiving. There was a lot of people in the ER (emergency room), you know, people choking on turkey legs or whatever. 'And my leg began to disintegrate within some way around the kneecap area. The doctor goes, 'You have any idea why you would have such a brutal infection on your kneecap?' And I just saw myself,' she said while mimicking dance moves from the video. 'And I had to tell him. And to have a surgeon look at you and say, 'Yuck.' 'They open up like cadavers, like they see inside the guts of humans, and they're looking at me, telling me I'm disgusting.' Asked if the area where she filmed had been steamed first, Cyrus replied: 'Absolutely not, none of that. 'Because, you know, with this movie, I had a big dream and a small budget. 'Well, I had a pretty good budget, but I spent it all on my clothes. 'Then when it came time to go to the Walk of Fame, they're like 'So what are you going to do? Are you going to rent this thing or what, because that's really out of your price range.' I was like, 'No, we'll just go in the middle of the night.' 'Have you been to the Walk of Fame in the middle of the night? I thought it was my last day.' The new film is accompanied by the singer's ninth studio album of the same name which includes a song titled Walk Of Fame, featuring US musician Brittany Howard. The album is being released on May 30 and there will be special one-night-only screenings of the film internationally on June 27.
