sounds like you have a weak lower back. you can do supermans to make it stronger. but the real cure is DEADLIFTZ.

Well, you are keeping it constantly flexed.

Did you have a back injury? Push-ups could aggravate it.

Also, stop doing push-ups, and instead do some useful exercises.

They're supposed to work your chest, but are really inefficent at doing so, and really only builds muscular endurance?

I could think of much better things to do than push ups.
