See below: A loss of lumbar lordosis means that the natural curvature of the lumbar spine straightens out. This can be seen with arthritis of the spine as well as tightening of the muscles in the lumbar area. Some people have less lordosis than others so it is not always a problem. Talk to your doctor about it.

Loss of the sway of: It means your lower back is less curved when looking from the side but there is no reason to avoid anything because of that appearance & exercise is fine. Sometimes this is just the way we are built or may be related to an unerlying spine deformity or as you get older, to a condition known as spinal stenosis. As long as there is no pain in the region, there are no restrictions in your activities.
