A member asked:
Hello doctor. will you please tell me that what is the meaning of (straightening of lumbar lordotic curvature is seen)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not much meaning.: Normally there is a bend inward of the lower back. The statement implies there is a bit less of it than is usually seen. This can be just from the person not standing straight, can be from pain, or back spasm. Unless there are many other findings, it is not due to arthritis, nor injury
