Chronic Wounds Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034


The 7 major chronic wounds markets reached a value of US$ 5.5 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the 7MM to reach US$ 7.6 Billion by 2034, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 2.96% during 2024-2034.

The chronic wounds market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Chronic Wounds Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Chronic wounds are injured tissues that do not follow the normal healing process and fail to heal within the expected timeframe. This condition typically persists for an extended period, often exceeding three months, and may show limited or no improvement over time. The symptoms of the ailment can vary in patients depending on the underlying cause and the specific type of wound. Some common indications of this illness include ongoing pain or discomfort at the affected site, swelling, redness, warmth, an unpleasant odor, the appearance of red, spongy, or excessively raised tissue, darkened skin, etc. In many cases, individuals suffering from the disease may also experience fever, itchiness, leakage of milky pus, bleeding, poor sleep quality, etc. The diagnosis of chronic wounds typically involves a comprehensive assessment of underlying symptoms, a medical history, and a physical examination. Numerous laboratory tests may be ordered to determine blood circulation, check for signs of infection, measure blood glucose levels, or evaluate nutritional deficiencies that can contribute to the delayed healing process. Additionally, the healthcare provider may further perform a tissue biopsy to confirm the diagnosis.

The increasing cases of peripheral artery disease and diabetes, which can damage blood vessels and impair circulation, leading to delayed tissue healing, are primarily driving the chronic wounds market. In addition to this, the rising incidence of autoimmune disorders that affect immune functions and disrupt the body's normal physiological processes is creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the widespread adoption of biological dressings, such as skin substitutes or grafts derived from human or animal sources, since they aid in wound healing by providing a favorable environment for tissue regeneration, is further bolstering the market growth. Apart from this, the inflating application of topical corticosteroids, including hydrocortisone, betamethasone dipropionate, triamcinolone, etc., to provide symptomatic relief and reduce inflammation, itching, or irritation in the affected area, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the emerging popularity of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy for the treatment of the condition, since it increases blood flow and enhances cellular activity, is expected to drive the chronic wounds market during the forecast period.

IMARC Group's new report provides an exhaustive analysis of the chronic wounds market in the United States, EU5 (Germany, Spain, Italy, France, and United Kingdom) and Japan.
