I have never had this issue before, then Adobe did an update to Lightroom and since the update my images look really good in the lightroom window but when I export them, they look absolutely trash and fuzzy. Tried changing from sRGB and so on, nothing works, its as if Adobe went, yeah screw him 🙂

Please go to Help>System Info… and provide us with your software's installed version number. 

 

It would be helpful to show the difference by including:

 

  1.  Screenshot of your Edit Screen
  2.  Screenshot of your Export Screen
  3.  Actual file output.

If you are exporting as "Small", then I would expect some loss of detail.! "Small" will downsize the pixel dimensions in your exported file.

Try "Large"  or "Original" and test your results.
