In some cases, yes, there is a family history of HS. In some cases, no, there is no family history of HS. More research needs to be done to determine if HS is hereditary or not.

There is not much known about the disease but it does run in families H.S. is often misdiagnosed as boils and carbuncles. As with all inhered diseases, not every member or generation will be affected by the disease H.S. is different for everyone. Some may have few lesions others will have a more active disease process. There also is a reactive form of arthritis associated with H.S that can be severe very debilitating requiring major pain management.
