[ABSTRACT]
In recent years, the self-heating pain relief patch industry has attracted considerable attention due to its convenience, efficacy, and growing demand in the global market. Self-heating patches use an exothermic reaction (usually involving iron powder, salt, and activated charcoal) to generate heat in contact with air, helping to relieve pain associated with muscle soreness, joint discomfort, and other chronic pain. With the continuous improvement of global health management concepts and the increasing consumer demand for natural and non-drug treatments, this market has gradually become an emerging growth point in the global consumer goods industry. This article aims to analyze the current status of the global self-heating patch market, explore its main market regions, focus on its application, usage and precautions in various fields, and analyze future growth prospects.
