Foot and ankle devices are used in Latin America to restore ankle and foot function and treat various ailments such as diabetic foot, hammertoes, and arthritis. The growing aging population and the rising occurrence rate of joint issues such as fractures, foot ulcers, arthritis, and union are driving the foot and ankle devices market.

One of the significant factors that drive the growth of the foot and ankle devices market is the rising occurrence of sports-related injuries, the increasing incidence of diabetes and foot-related ailments, and technological advancements. Furthermore, the growing senior population in Latin America signals a substantial opportunity for foot and ankle devices, as aging reduces bone strength and increases fracture risk.

In terms of the cause of damage, diabetes is a common cause of foot and ankle injuries due to the large senior population. Latin America is the market leader in foot and ankle devices due to the high occurrence of injuries and the large aging population in Brazil, both of which are vital contributors to Latin America's market dominance. 

External & internal factors that are projected to positively or negatively impact the company have been investigated, presenting decision-makers with a clear, futuristic view of the sector.
