The global epistaxis market is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2021-2027).  epistaxis is a condition that causes sporadic nose bleeding in one or both nostrils. Depending on where the bleeding begins, this clinical condition is defined as anterior epistaxis or posterior epistaxis. Nearly 10% of nosebleeds are life-threatening, and epistaxis is responsible for 4 out of every 2.4 million mortalities. This disease affects both young children with age 2-10 years and older persons with age between 50-80 years, however, it affects those over 50 years of age more frequently. Males have a higher prevalence (58%) than females (42%). 

Epistaxis usually responds well to nasal cauterization, nasal packing, or a combination of the two treatments. Surgical alternatives or embolization procedures are frequently indicated for people who have recurrent nosebleeds. These procedures are accessible in hospitals and ENT clinics. Cauterization is a process that involves removing or burning a small piece of tissue near the bleeding site using chemicals such as silver nitrate or mild electric shocks.

Further, local trauma, such as sinus infection or even nose picking, is the most common cause of epistaxis and is more common in people who use anticoagulant drugs such as warfarin, clopidogrel, aspirin, or any other anticoagulant. Furthermore, there are a variety of topical applications on the market, such as tranexamic acid, that allows to stop nosebleeds. Therefore, the increase in the number of incidences of nosebleeds is contributing to the growth of the global epistaxis market.
