You should see something like <p class="indent">, <p class="para-p"> and so on, there are hundreds of variants. Sometimes it's not a p, but a div. In short, look at what code an ordinary paragraph uses. Then open the css file and look for that code there. If you see any font-size smaller than 1em under that paragraph class, delete it (the whole row - like, font-size: 0.8em or font-size: small. You can use Search & Replace to bulk delete all instances of that abnormal size from the css file. You should see the text get larger in the preview window after this. If everything seems ok, save and close the editor.
The first thing to do to make editing the CSS easier is (in the editor) go Tools > Remove unused CSS rules. Most eBooks have excess CSS. Sometimes it's rather a lot of excess CSS. Then you'll be left with just what's actually used in the CSS.
