(MENAFN- Market Press Release) November 17, 2025 12:10 am - Apelo Consulting has released a report on "Global Wound Care Market (by Product Type, Application, Wound Type, Country and Company Analysis), Size, Share, Acquisitions, Recent Developments - Forecast to 2032"

The global wound care market was valued at USD 24.2 billion in 2024, and is projected to reach USD 35.2 billion by 2032. Wound infections pose significant safety risks for both patients and healthcare professionals, making effective wound care essential for preventing infections and promoting patient well-being. The market for wound care products is expanding due to an increasing number of surgical procedures, a growing geriatric population, and the rising prevalence of chronic diseases worldwide. The surge in diabetes, driven by sedentary lifestyles, is a major factor contributing to market growth. According to the California Podiatric Medical Association, 15% of individuals with diabetes develop foot ulcers, which wound care products help manage. Moreover, government initiatives targeting trauma cases, the development of healthcare infrastructure, and patient support programs are further driving the adoption of wound care, fuelling market expansion.
