Guitar string hitting fret while playing after changing to thing strings?

Hey I just changed my guitar strings to one of a small gauge. But now when I play the string hit the fret and the tension is quite low. Why is it like this? Thank you.

well depending how the truss rod (an adjustable pole in your neck) is set up in your guitar, it sounds like it needs to be loosened. but if you are not familiar with this then DON’T MESS WITH IT. too many people try adjusting these with no knowledge of it and end up really screwing it up. take it to a guitar shop to a proper luthier and have him adjust it.
