Aus Dornheim Anatomy
A pathological change in the lordosis is described as a malposition of the lumbar spine, in which the abdominal area bulges forward due to the displacement of the pelvis. Late consequences would include herniated discs, spinal canal stenosis and gliding vertebrae. Causes can be shortened or untrained back muscles due to lack of exercise or incorrect posture. It inhibits the function of the abdominal muscles as antagonists by not relaxing.
