Accepted Answer

Effect not cause: Reversal of the normal lumbar lordosis is a result of muscle spasm, not the cause.   Muscle spasm results from muscle strain. Treatment consists of relative rest  (NOT BEDREST!), temporarily avoiding the activity that caused the muscle strain, OTC pain medications, heat, gentle stretching and ice.  If the problem persists, physical therapy will help.

Means normal : Lordosis is the name for the normal curvature of your lower back. As there is a normal roundness to the thoracic spine, there is a curving in of the lumbar spine, resulting in the "small" of your back. That lordosis is maintained means that the normal curvature is there (i'm guessing this was from an x-ray report).
