DUBLIN, Aug. 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The "OTC Braces and Supports Market by Product (Knee, Ankle, Spine, Shoulder, Neck, Elbow, Wrist, Facial), Category, Application (Ligament (ACL, LCL), Preventive, OA, Compression), Distribution (Clinics, Pharmacies, E-Commerce) - Global Forecast to 2024" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global OTC braces and supports market is expected to reach USD 1,547.4 million by 2024 from USD1,204.4 million in 2019, at a CAGR of 5.1%.

OTC braces and supports are designed to cure musculoskeletal disorders. They are used to align, position, support, stabilize, and protect certain parts of the body (such as the muscles, joints, and bones). These products support patient rehabilitation and recovery for numerous orthopedic disorders.

The growth in the OTC braces and supports market is majorly driven by the increasing prevalence of orthopedic diseases & disorders, continuous product commercialization, greater product affordability and market availability, rising number of sports and accident-related injuries, growing public awareness related to preventive care, increased sales of off-the-shelf and online products, and promotion and branding initiatives undertaken by major product manufacturers.

However, the limited clinical evidence to support the efficacy of orthopedic braces & supports, and significant adoption of pain medications are expected to restrain the growth of this market during the forecast period.

In this report, the OTC braces and supports market is segmented on the basis of product, application, type, distribution channel, and region.
