    Can't spot my mistake C

    I'm trying to make a simple program in C, which asks an input above 10 and prints it on the screen.
    Code:
    #include <cs50.h>
    #include <stdio.h>
    
    int main(void)
    {
      int h;
      do {
        int h = get_int("mispar\n");
      }
      while (h < 10);
      printf("%i\n", h);
    }
    and it replies me with:
    declaration shadows a local variable [-Werror,-Wshadow]
    int h =get_int("mispar\n");
    ^
    number.c:6:5: note: previous declaration is here
    int h;
    ^

    \

    So make line 8 just
    h = get_int("mispar\n");
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
