Diabetic Ulcers Treatment Market Growth Drivers and Challenges:
Growth Drivers
- Growing Prevalence of Periodontal (Gum) Disease Worldwide - According to the World Health Organization, about 14% of the global adult population suffers from severe periodontal disease, which comprises more than 1 billion cases worldwide. As a result of gum disease, blood sugar levels can increase, which can further exacerbate the problems associated with diabetes, such as heart disease, blood vessel problems, eye problems, kidney problems, and nerve problems. Consequently, poor oral hygiene may contribute to diabetes, which can lead to mouth ulcers. This factor is projected to propel the demand for diabetic ulcer treatment during the forecast period.
- Rise in the Number of Inactive Lifestyles that Increases Chances of Obesity and Diabetes - About 60% of U.S. adults do not engage in adequate physical activity, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It is estimated that nearly 25 percent of American adults are completely inactive.
- Huge Base of Geriatric Population Worldwide Who are More Prone to Diabetes - At the end of 2021, there were 747,238,580 people over 60 years of age living in the world, according to the World Bank. In the future, the number is expected to increase.
- Growing Personal Disposable Income Which Changes Lifestyle Habits - According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, personal income grew by USD 47.0 billion (0.2%) in July 2022, while disposable personal income rose by USD 37.6 billion (0.2%).
- Rising Prevalence of Fissured Tongue in Diabetes Owing to Reduced Saliva Flow - For instance, the global prevalence of fissured tongue among diabetic patients is 17% . Diabetes patients showed more of this alteration of 15% than non-diabetics of 11%.
Challenges
- Lack of Awareness About Diabetic Ulcers – A large percentage of the population is unaware of the identifying characteristics of diabetic ulcers, often mistaking them for normal ulcers until the disease progresses. Hence, awareness needs to spread about this condition and how to diagnose it.
- Lack of Raw Materials and Supply Due to COVID-19
- High Cost Associated with the Foot Ulcer Treatment
