Global Hemorrhoid Treatment Devices Market is expected to register a CAGR of 7.3% to reach USD 1.4 billion by 2030. Hemorrhoids, also called piles, are swollen and inflamed blood vessels in the anus as well as in the lower rectum. The patient suffers from painless bleeding at the time of bowel movement, itching or irritation in the anal region, and swelling around the anus. The hemorrhoid treatment devices reduce procedure time and also provides easy access to the target site for optimal patient comfort.
The hemorrhoid treatment devices industry is expected to grow at a steady pace. The rising prevalence rate of chronic diarrhea is one of the factors contributing to the growth of the market globally. Also, several public and private companies are incorporating innovative technologies in the development of medical devices for the treatment of hemorrhoids. Such strategies employed by prominent players are likely to push the market growth of the hemorrhoid treatment devices on a global front.
Rising cases of hemorrhoids are expected to boost the market growth. The growing number of cases of hemorrhoids is pushing the demand for hemorrhoid treatment devices, which attributes to the market growth of the hemorrhoid treatment devices globally. For instance, the hemorrhoid is the fourth leading outpatient gastrointestinal diagnosis that accounts for approximately 3.3 million ambulatory care visits in the US. Self-reported incidences of hemorrhoids in the US are 10 million each year, which is around 4.4% of the population. Additionally, new approaches to treat hemorrhoids, rising geriatric population are the major drivers that would push to the growth of the market.

Regional Analysis
The Global Hemorrhoid Treatment Devices Market, based on region, has been divided into the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East & Africa.
The Americas led the market and accounted for the largest share in 2018, owing to the existence of medical device companies and the rising prevalence of diseases along with increased adoption of treatment by patients. In North America, the US held the largest of the market share in 2018 owing to the presence of major market players, developed healthcare infrastructure, high awareness, and availability of advanced treatment options. The number of people suffering from hemorrhoids in the US is currently estimated to be around 10.4 million; also, about 1 million new cases of hemorrhoids occur each year. Thus, this is propelling the demand for hemorrhoid treatments, thereby supporting the dominance of the region.
Europe accounts for the second-largest share in the global hemorrhoid treatment devices market owing to the presence of favorable government initiatives & laws and target population base, rising prevalence of lifestyle-associated conditions, obesity and constipation, and increasing adoption rate of hemorrhoids treatment devices. Nearly 50% of all Germans develop symptomatic hemorrhoids during their lifetime, and up to 70% of the adult population is affected by hemorrhoids.
Asia-Pacific is estimated to be the fastest-growing market during the forecast period due to the increasing per capita health spending, growing older population base, rising incidence of hemorrhoids, and developing the healthcare sector in China, Japan, India, and Australia. Around 1 million new cases of hemorrhoids develop every year in India, which is nurturing the regional market growth, thus, resulting in the growth of the Asia-Pacific hemorrhoid treatment devices market.
The Middle East & Africa hemorrhoid treatment devices market is segmented into two major regions, namely the Middle East and Africa. In this region, the Middle East would hold a substantial market share over the assessment period due to high obesity rates, developing healthcare infrastructure, booming medical tourism, the budding medical device industry, and gradually increasing adoption of treatment modalities in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region. In 2016, the CIA World Factbook presented a list that ranked countries based on obesity rates. Several countries from the Middle East and North Africa were ranked highly with Kuwait at the highest obesity rate in the Middle East. Additionally, in 2016, the medical tourism sector displayed a significant growth of 9% to 10%, and more than 326,649 patients from all over the world visited Dubai for medical treatments. Thus, these factors are expected to have a positive impact on the Middle East and Africa market over the study period.
