Which key drivers are propelling the topical pain relief market’s growth?

The escalating incidence of arthritis and bone-related diseases is anticipated to spur the expansion of the topical pain relief market in the future. These health conditions impact the bones, joints, and surrounding tissues. Topical pain relief is commonly utilized to manage arthritis and bone-related diseases to soothe the local pain, inflammation, and discomfort linked with these illnesses, particularly in superficial joints. For example, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a health protection agency based in the US, stated in February 2024 that in 2022, 18.9% of adults were diagnosed with arthritis, with a higher frequency in women (21.5%) compared to men (16.1%). The incidence climbed with age, reaching a peak of 53.9% among individuals aged 75 and above, and was higher amongst non-Hispanic Black and White adults. The rates reduced with increasing income and in cities. Consequently, the escalating incidence of arthritis and bone-related diseases forms a key driver for the expansion of the topical pain relief market.
