The Pauka / Krisi Siknis consists of a health problem, of sudden appearance, it affects mainly young people, despite going back to ancient times, the causes are still unknown, which prevents health personnel from being able to handle it like the rest of pathologiesIn order to analyze the experience of the healing process of the pauka / krisi siknis, from the traditional ancestral medicine, the knowledge, knowings and feelings of the indigenous Miskitu population about this health problem are described. The methodological strategy consisted of the documentary review, which involved the review of scientific studies and publications. Mostly carried out by foreign anthropologists where researchers from universities in the United States of America stand out.This health problem must be valued and addressed from an intercultural health perspective so that in this way it responds to the harmonization between conventional medicine / biomedicine and ancestral medicine. An approach of this nature could lead to massive outbreaks being avoided, by controlling the number of people affected in a timely manner
