Question

I have this report due, waited to the last minute, anyone have any ideas on where i can get information about it and fast, that is regarding susto

Answer 1

Sustos is an imagined ailment among traditional Mexican people. Its etiology is a shock, like almost being hit by a car. It is treated by a curandero (Mexican herbal doctor). You won't find it in any medical book because it is not recognized by the American Medical Association.

It is akin to hysteria, psychosomatic ailment, or some other emotional problem.
