The valley fever market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Valley Fever Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2025-2035". Valley fever, also called coccidioidomycosis, is a type of fungal infection caused by the coccidioides fungus, which grows in arid soil and dirt. Some people may have no indications at all, while others may develop flu-like symptoms, such as fever, cough, headache, fatigue, etc. However, many individuals may experience more worsening indications, including chest pain, shortness of breath, night sweats, headaches, muscle aches, joint pain, etc. In rare cases, the infection can spread to other parts of the body, such as the skin, bones, and brain, causing severe symptoms like skin lesions, meningitis, or even death. The diagnosis of valley fever requires a combination of the patient's travel history, clinical features, and a physical examination. A blood test can also be utilized to determine the presence of antibodies or antigens in the body. The healthcare provider may perform numerous imaging studies, such as chest X-rays, computerized tomography scans, etc., that provide lung pictures to visualize a potentially serious complication. In severe cases, a biopsy of the affected site is recommended for a detailed investigation and confirmation of the illness.
The increasing incidence of exposure to fungus spores that thrive in soil disruptions caused by human or animal activity, including construction sites and farming operations, is primarily driving the valley fever market. In addition to this, the rising prevalence of various associated risk factors, such as advancing age, weakened immune system, occupational hazards, etc., is also bolstering the market growth. Furthermore, the widespread adoption of antifungal medications, including fluconazole and itraconazole, for treating the ailment is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. These pharmacological agents work by inhibiting the synthesis of a vital part of the fungal cell membrane that reduces the fungus's ability to replicate and prevents disease progression in patients. Additionally, numerous key players are making extensive investments in R&D activities to introduce immunomodulatory therapies, such as interferon-gamma or granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), which can help to boost the immune system's response to the infection. This, in turn, is further creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the ongoing development of a two-dose human vaccine for the condition, since it encourages an immune response against the fungus and provides long-term protection from the infection, is expected to drive the valley fever market in the coming years.
