Primary Osteoarthritis Market Scenario

The Primary Osteoarthritis Market is projected to reach USD 12,494.2 Million by 2030 at 9.8% CAGR during the forecast period 2022-2030.Arthritis refers to inflammation of the joint, accompanied by joint pain and stiffness. It may be acute or chronic. Obesity, infections, crystal deposition, joint injury, and old age are some of the common causes associated with arthritis. Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are two common types of arthritis. Osteoarthritis is a chronic disease, which affects joints, including ligament, cartilage, joint lining, and underlying bones. This disease results in joint pain and stiffness due to the breakdown of cartilage. It is also known as Degenerative Joint Disease (DJD). Primary osteoarthritis and secondary osteoarthritis are the two major forms of osteoarthritis. Primary osteoarthritis results from abnormal stress on weight-bearing joints. This is prevalent mostly in the aging population.

Physical therapy, occupational therapy, chronic pain class, and braces are some of the therapies associated with osteoarthritis. Moreover, osteoarthritis treatment includes surgical procedures such as lubrication injections, cortisone shots, and joint replacement. Rising incidences of surgeries, increasing technological advancements, increasing number of pipeline drugs, and rising awareness about health care are some of the key factors driving the growth of the osteoarthritis market. In addition, rising disposable income in developing countries is also fueling the growth of the osteoarthritis market.

However, stringent regulatory policies and less adoption of osteoarthritis treatment are restraining the growth of the osteoarthritis market. In addition, side effects associated with osteoarthritis medications are also impeding the growth of Primary Osteoarthritis Market.
