Coughing 24px

The coughing icon represents a person coughing, a common symptom of various respiratory illnesses. It is often used in medical and health-related contexts to convey a sense of illness or discomfort. The icon's design is simple and recognizable, making it easily understandable across different cultures and languages.

In real-world applications, the coughing icon appears in various software and platforms related to healthcare, such as telemedicine apps, health monitoring systems, and medical information websites. For example, a telemedicine app might use the coughing icon to represent a patient's reported symptom, while a health monitoring system might use it to indicate a potential health risk.

From a UX perspective, the coughing icon communicates a sense of caution or concern, helping users quickly understand the nature of a reported symptom or health issue. Its simplicity and recognizability make it an effective tool for conveying complex information in a clear and concise manner.

Coughing 24px is one of 2,691 icons in Health Icons, made by Resolve to Save Lives and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds Coughing24pxIcon to components/icons/healthicons-coughing-24px.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed Coughing24pxIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Coughing 24px icon, or any of 2,691 Health Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Coughing 24px", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. Coughing24pxIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <Coughing24pxIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Health Icons, Resolve to Save Lives and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
