Global Sports Medicine Market Overview

Globally, sports injuries have increased over the last few years, primarily due to the growing participation in sports and active participation in fitness activities (the increasing focus on leading healthy lifestyles). People hardly have time to exercise or engage in physical activities in today’s fast-paced world. So, they participate in sports activities willingly, some for fun and others to have physical activity.

Also, the lower extremity constitutes a significant portion of sports injuries globally. With the increasing participation in sports and subsequent growth in sports injuries, the demand for injury management and rehabilitation expect to increase across the globe.

The major restrictive factor for the growth of the Sports Medicine Market is the high cost of implants. The cost of these implants is a primary concern for market growth in countries such as India, where only a tiny section of the population is under insurance coverage. Affording such high-cost treatment is still a big challenge for most people. The rise in sports medicine equipment-related product recalls, and lack of healthcare infrastructure in under-developed countries obstruct market growth. Recalling the product creates a negative image of the product and the company in customers’ minds, which is currently blocking the market for sports medicine. The lack of healthcare infrastructure due to fewer government initiatives and low awareness is also hampering market development.

High-cost medicines and lack of sporting culture are also reasons for some countries’ slow growth in the Sports Medicine Market. Due to poor economic growth in Underdeveloped and Developing countries, the healthcare facilities lack well-developed infrastructure, which drives lower adoption of these products. Furthermore, a lack of sporting culture is also responsible for the slow development of sports medicine in these countries. Also, the market in these countries is highly-priced sensitive. These factors anticipate limiting the market growth. Emerging countries such as China and India are home to a vast patient base. They expect to offer potential growth opportunities for players working in the Sports Medicine Market due to the increasing disposable incomes in these countries (due to the fast economic growth) and rising participation in sports and physical activities. Also, currently, governments in these countries are beginning initiatives to develop and improve their respective healthcare infrastructures.
