Increasing incidence of diabetes and obesity To Boost Market Growth

The rising global incidence of diabetes and obesity has emerged as a significant driver for the active wound care market. Both conditions are closely linked to the development of chronic wounds, particularly diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, and pressure ulcers. Diabetes impairs blood circulation and reduces the body’s ability to heal wounds effectively, often resulting in non-healing or slowly healing wounds that can lead to severe infections or even amputations. WHO Europe in April?2025 urged integrative obesity management as part of universal health coverage; 2023 saw rollout of an “Acceleration Plan to Stop Obesity. Obesity further compounds the problem by increasing pressure on the skin, particularly in immobile patients, and disrupting normal blood flow. This can lead to pressure injuries and delayed healing. Moreover, obese individuals often suffer from comorbidities such as peripheral vascular disease, which further limits tissue oxygenation and nutrient delivery to wounds.
