by Complex regional pain syndrome is a debilitating chronic pain condition that primarily involves the extremities. It is characterized by symptoms such as persistent severe burning pain, swelling, sweating, skin color and temperature changes. It often develops after an injury, surgery, stroke or heart attack and disproportionately impacts women. Effective treatment options for complex regional pain syndrome are limited. Currently, the first line of treatment focuses on pain relief with drugs like anticonvulsants, antidepressants, bisphosphonates, physical therapy and sympathetic blockade.
The global Complex Regional Pain Syndrome Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 103.07 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 7.2% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
The growing geriatric population and rising incidence of chronic diseases and injuries are major factors driving the complex regional pain syndrome market growth. Elderly people are more susceptible to chronic pain conditions like CRPS due to degenerative changes in the bones and joints. According to United Nations estimates, the global population aged 60 years and above is expected to reach 2 billion by 2050 from 1 billion in 2020. Moreover, rising physical inactivity, obesity and unsafe work environments are contributing to increasing incidence of fractures, sprains, strains and surgeries which can potentially lead to complex regional pain syndrome. The global market is also being stimulated by ongoing research on new drugs and treatment methods to manage this debilitating chronic pain disorder more effectively.
Market key trends
There is an increased focus on use of multidisciplinary treatment approaches for complex regional pain syndrome. Combination therapies involving pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions such as physical therapy, osteopathic manipulation, occupational therapy, psychotherapy and complementary methods like acupuncture are becoming preferred over conventional symptomatic treatment. Several studies have shown that multimodal rehabilitative treatments that gradually increase mobility and functions result in better long term outcomes compared to pain medications alone. Researchers are also investigating alternative treatment options like spinal cord stimulation, gene therapy, stem cell therapy and mirror therapy for CRPS, which hold promise to transform management of this chronic neuropathic pain condition in future.
