The impact of pain on people around the world
The GSK Global Pain Index is an in-depth global study into physical pain and its impact on people’s lives. Earlier this year, we launched our fourth index which analysed attitudes to pain in 19,000 individuals across 19 countries. The results suggest that pain remains a problem for over 93% of adults worldwide with 27% of people suffering from body pain every day. 33% individuals do not know the cause of their most recent pain and 66% of sufferers delay seeking immediate relief for their body pain. This latest index also sheds interesting insights into the evolution of pain alongside modern lifestyles as 52% of Gen Z and Millennials experience neck/shoulder pains due to their increased use of screens and smartphones.**
The science behind Voltaren
The active ingredient in most Voltaren products is diclofenac. This is a powerful nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) which inhibits pain-signaling chemicals. The Voltaren range includes oral (tablet and liquid capsules) and topical (applied to the skin) treatments. The diclofenac in topical Voltaren products such as gels or medicated patches, works by penetrating deep through the skin, relieving pain and reducing inflammation directly at the source.
Voltaren is the number one topical pain reliever worldwide***
