Sometimes we can see people with worse injuries, recover quicker than someone with not such a severe problem. You may have a flare-up that continues to crop up from time to time, we would still class this problem as chronic as it likely didn’t heal properly to begin with.  The role of your spine is to provide a solid base of support and weight-bear. We can injure our backs by repeatedly adopting poor posture or by lifting something with poor form. When your lower back becomes compressed. If you tear a ligament, and do the correct things that help the problem to heal - it can take a bit of time to return back to its normal strength but you will get the integrity back over the next few months. 

What frequently happens is that people are spending excessive amounts of time sitting or doing knee hugs to help it feel better, but this continually weakens the area. Your body will still try to heal itself but you’ll start getting scar tissue like if you were to continually reopen a cut on your hand.  Not understanding the mechanism of the injury can cause the injury to become chronic. A lot of things affect the healing of your injury, such as being overweight, smoking, inactivity, alcohol consumption, no muscle mass, poor diet, poor movement habits and hobbies that encourage poor movement patterns.
