Hello,
As the history suggests this will be ligament sprain in the lumbar spine leading to the weakness of the paraspinal muscles and the intervertebral disc. If taken care for now then may restrict the disc pathology to progress.
Doing core stability exercise, spinal muscle strengthening exercises, hip muscle strengthening exercises should help improve the overall symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
