YES!!!
Any acute strain goes chronic in me.
If I so much as stress a joint a tiny bit more than it likes, I can cause a flare that will last years in that joint. Take my achilles last year - I caused a tiny tear in it from hiking, but it caused a massive reaction that lead to chronic achilles tendinitis, and it's only starting to get better now. My SI first started from overdoing it rock climbing. I also had a knee start like that years ago too. I guess a small injury attracts a normal immune response, and but whatever reason, it just continues to try to "heal" for years, or something like that.
