Self-care is defined as procedures and exercises that the own individual can perform in order to prevent sequelae and should therefore be part of the routine treatment of leprosy, for being is a chronic disease, infectious, which predominantly affects skin and peripheral nerves and has high disabling power, when does not diagnosed and treated early. Thus, the study aimed to identify the level of knowledge of leprosy patients about leprosy self-care. It is an observational descriptive and analytical type cross-sectional study, accomplished with 18 users on leprosy treatment attended at a Basic Health Unit in the city of Belém-PA. They were submitted to a single application of a self-care questionnaire for patients with leprosy. The results found and discussed revealed gaps in knowledge about aspects of the disease, however, good percentages of correct responses about the affected structures. But, own experiences and the dermatoneurological evaluation were, possibly, the factors of greater influence on the responses, evidencing the need for health education strategies, such as the creation of support groups for this public.
