Q) Is it true that leg issues are hereditary?

A) Although this is frequently said, it has not yet been proven scientifically. However it has been observed that leg problems can be common in certain families, it may actually be the fact that they live in the same environment and share similar living conditions, habits, diet and attitudes to exercise that is responsible, rather than any hereditary link.
