most likely the rings have seized up from not being run or the oil in the rings has gone soli8d. could also have rusted bores.
most likely won't cure itself although there are some chemical supposed to fix it.
for my money pull the motor strip it down and clean out the ring grooves manually, not a lot of fun but will work.
