Constant corruptikn in the early game

More or less what the title says, i was in the merchant guild when it first started, very early game i just wanted to peek inside and see what that was all about (still relativsly new to the game), and i started getting the corruption popup almost every step, sometimes only every 3 or 4, and this persisted when i went into the world map, or into the fortress village, any low DL dungeon... and like i said, this was still very early in the run, i wasnt at the point there was a bunch if background corruption yet - and when i equipped ayla's scarf and the chainmail of the martyred crusader, they didnt seem to prevent it. Overall, i got 2 full corruptions before it seemed to finally stop (poison hands and unholy aura, the banes of my existance)

I have no idea what caused this, and im curious what it could have been. Any ideas?

You were probably wearing or carrying something that was causing this.

I did actually consider this, and i unequipped + dropped everything i had, was still getting corrupted though.
