My sister says she has hip pain. are family members more likely to get the same thing?

Not necessarily: There are many causes of "hip" pain. What many people refer to as hip pain is not true hip joint pain. Heredity can play a role in the tendency to develop arthritis in the hip but it is not 100%.
