# PRIM_HEALTH

*LSL constant*

```lsl
integer PRIM_HEALTH = 52;
```

Constant groups: [PrimParam](/constants/groups/PrimParam/), [PrimParamGet](/constants/groups/PrimParamGet/)

Used to get or set the health of the object. Objects start with 0 health by default.

This property can only be changed by a call to [llSetPrimitiveParams](https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlSetPrimitiveParams) or [llSetLinkPrimitiveParams](https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlSetLinkPrimitiveParams). Damaging an object (with [llDamage](/functions/llDamage/) or collision by damage-enabled object) will not directly affect its health.

## Caveats

- Does not make this object scannable as a [DAMAGEABLE](/constants/DAMAGEABLE/) object. For that you will need to add [on_damage](/events/on_damage/) or [final_damage](/events/final_damage/) events to the script on the object which will mark it as being able to process damage.
