It means that you have either problems with piston rings, or valve gaskets. If it smokes only a little bit then, just go in an auto part store and buy special additive for sticky rings or special additive for swallen valve rings. It will save you a lot of money. If decide to replace either rings and/or valve gaskets it will cost you about $500 minimum. Be carefull with additive, don't make engine oil too viscous. It can permanently demage your engine.
