I had 30/30/30 hp. What does it mean? Also upon level up I got 30/30/32. How to explain that?
And now when I am killed by a boar I have 28/28/32. How to get my hp back?

Re: What's with the HP?
A characters life is represented by "soft hp / hard hp / maximum hp",
where soft and max hp is what you're used to from other games.
Your soft hp is limited by your hard hp, just like soft and hard hp is limited by max hp.
The difference is that hard hp takes a lot more time to heal than soft hp and the hard hp is also on a different scale.
Maybe you've noticed the red and yellow numbers in combat; red = soft, yellow = hard
Perhaps one of the gods can enlighten you a bit more :)

I'd love to know. Because I currently have 2/2/32.

Re: What's with the HP?
Deon,
If the first number reaches zero, your character will be knocked out, and resurrect as soon as he regains one hp. The first number represents, as kaka said, soft health points, that are regenerated over time.
If the second number reaches zero, on the other hand, your character will be the first character in Haven & Hearth to actually and factually experience permanent and irrevocable death. The second number represents, as kaka said, hard hitpoints, grievous damage, that are not regenerated automatically at all.
Soft HP is limited by Hard HP which, in turn, is limited by Max HP (The third number)
Max HP is calculated as follows: (Strength + (Constitution X 2)) X Health Point modifier (from personal beliefs).
There are currently two ways of restoring Hard Hitpoints. Gauze and Leeches.
Gauze is made from sheep's wool, and slowly restores up to ten hard hitpoints.
Leeches will automatically equip to any free equip slot when you walk through a swamp. Leeches suck blood from your character (represented as soft HP damage) and for every ten soft hitpoints of damage sustained this way, restores one hard hitpoint (approximately).
I would not recommend the latter method, since all damage is treated as damage to your hard hitpoints if your character has no soft hitpoints left. Leeches, thus, might very well kill you.
Gauze, my friend, is your last hope. Learn "First Aid" and find some sheep for wool. We're implementing reincarnation tonight, so don't die before that.

Re: What's with the HP?
Oh, and you use gauze by holding it and right clicking on your character, or another character, for that matter, and choosing "Treat Head". You cannot have anything equipped on the character's head when doing this.

What unlocks first aid?
The ones who see things differently.
You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them.
And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.

Re: What's with the HP?
I knew valor was suspicious!
Getting that now. Naturally when living next to a swamp i resort to leeches, but those take a long time to fix me up. Sheep are plentiful. I can't even dry all of those hides right now.

Re: What's with the HP?
How long do gauze or leeches take to work? I'm kinda tempted to just die a few more times and reincarnate instead.
