What Is Chronic Pain and Why Does It Matter?

Chronic pain is defined as pain that continues for more than three months and significantly affects daily functioning and quality of life. It can be associated with conditions such as arthritis, migraines, fibromyalgia, or cancer. Often, the pain stems from abnormal processing of pain signals in the nervous system, resulting in increased pain sensitivity.

DelveInsight notes that chronic pain is more prevalent among individuals aged 45–64, with the UK reporting the highest prevalence among EU5 nations—around 30% of all cases. In the United States, over 70% of reported chronic pain cases in 2023 were considered moderate to severe, reinforcing the need for more effective and safer treatments.

Epidemiology and Market Segments

The report includes data trends from 2020 through 2034, examining key epidemiological segments such as:

• Age and Gender: The likelihood of chronic pain rises with age, particularly in middle-aged and older populations.

  

  
  

• Pain Type and Intensity: Common chronic pain types include back pain, neuralgia, and migraines, with severity levels ranging from mild to severe.
  
  

Among the top seven global markets (7MM), Japan, the UK, and the U.S. have the highest numbers of diagnosed chronic pain cases.

Current Treatment Landscape and Ongoing Challenges

Treatment strategies for chronic pain span traditional and emerging options, including NSAIDs, opioids, and biologics. Notable drugs in the market include:

• JOYCLU (diclofenac etalhyaluronate sodium): Designed to alleviate inflammation and joint pain.
  

• ZILRETTA (triamcinolone acetonide extended-release): Targets knee osteoarthritis-related pain.
  
  

Despite their effectiveness, opioids are still widely used for moderate to severe chronic pain, though they come with significant risks, including dependency and misuse. In 2018, 168 million opioid prescriptions were issued in the U.S. Although prescription rates have since dropped, opioid addiction continues to complicate pain management strategies.

Emerging alternatives such as ZILOSUL (pentosan polysulfate sodium) and TNX-102 SL offer non-opioid pathways to pain relief, aiming to meet treatment needs while minimizing risk.
