Chronic Pain: Definition and Impact
Chronic pain, classified as pain lasting more than three months, is a common and debilitating condition that can severely impact daily life. It can be caused by underlying issues such as fibromyalgia, migraines, musculoskeletal problems, or cancer-related pain. Often, chronic pain results from disrupted nervous system activity, which leads to an amplified perception of pain.
DelveInsight reports that the likelihood of chronic pain increases with age, particularly among those aged 45–64. Among EU5 countries, the UK reports the highest prevalence, contributing to nearly 30% of the region’s cases. In the U.S., over 70% of chronic pain patients in 2023 were categorized as having moderate to severe symptoms—underscoring the urgent need for more effective therapies.

Epidemiology and Market Segmentation Overview
The report delivers an analysis of past and projected trends from 2020 to 2034. Key insights include:
-
Age and Gender-Based Prevalence: Rates of chronic pain increase with age, especially among middle-aged and elderly individuals.
-
Pain Type and Severity: Common conditions include lower back pain, migraines, and neuralgia, varying in intensity from mild to severe.
Among the top seven markets (7MM), Japan, the UK, and the U.S. are highlighted as having the highest number of diagnosed patients.
Current Therapies and Market Challenges
Treatment approaches for chronic pain include NSAIDs, opioids, and newer biologic therapies. Key approved drugs in the space include:
-
JOYCLU (diclofenac etalhyaluronate sodium) – targets joint inflammation and pain.
-
ZILRETTA (triamcinolone acetonide ER) – designed to ease knee osteoarthritis symptoms.
Despite their effectiveness, opioids remain controversial due to risks of addiction and misuse. In 2018, over 168 million opioid prescriptions were written in the U.S. While prescription rates have since declined, opioid dependency continues to hinder optimal pain care.
New treatments such as ZILOSUL (pentosan polysulfate sodium) and TNX-102 SL aim to meet unmet needs by offering alternatives that avoid the risks linked with opioid use.
