What are the Fundamental Drivers and Innovations Shaping the Topical Pain Relief Market?

The escalating occurrence of arthritis and issues related to bones is predicted to inflate the expansion of the topical pain relief market in the future. Arthritis and disorders related to bones include various medical ailments that impact the joints, bones, and their surrounding tissues. Topical pain relievers are frequently utilized to control arthritis and bone-related afflictions by alleviating localized pain, inflammation, and discomfort that these disorders can cause, especially in superficial joints. For instance, as per the data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a health protection agency based in the US, in 2022, 18.9% of adults were affected by arthritis. It was more prevalent among women (21.5%) than men (16.1%). This prevalence escalated with age, peaking at 53.9% among individuals 75 and older, and was predominantly high among Black and White non-Hispanic adults. Conversely, rates diminished with higher income and in urban areas. Consequently, the escalating prevalence of arthritis and bone-related disorders is a major driving force behind the expansion of the topical pain relief market.
