First of all you need to diagnose this. Lordosis refer to natural lordotic curve, which is normal. But if curve arches too far inwardly, then its described to lordosis or sway back pasture. Lordosis can affect lower back and neck. This can lead to excess pressure on spine, causing pain and discomfort.
Maintain your posture and daily activities.
Next Steps
Consult physiotherapist or orthopaedician.

The lower back naturally has an inward curve to it called as lordosis. Depending upon your posture and muscle, the curve can be more or less. You will have to get yourself assessed by a physiotherapist to find out if the curve is natural. Secondly, it is recommended to keep your core active / maintain neutral spine posture while doing the weight training.
Next Steps
Please visit a therapist to learn core activation/ neutral spine.
