Looks like you have your keyboard and mouse on a pull out under-tray, correct?
Well, you are hunched over, leaning in to see the tables. You have all this room on your desk between the front edge and your monitors. Pull those monitors up to the front edge when you are multitabling and sit up straight. If you dont have such an under tray, there is no need to have those monitors on the back edge, pull them up as close as you can get them to the front.
With your head leaning so far forward, your body is using a lot of energy to keep it up. Let your skeleton do the work. Get your head over your shoulders and your spine aligned. This will feel weird at first but is sure to gain you less stress and less fatigue in the long run.
One way to test this is to put your hands around the back of you neck. Feel the stress on the neck muscles. Now, sit up straight, and pull your chin in straight back (not down) until you feel those muscles release. (feels weird at first).
The closer you can get to prone, the better you will feel in the LR.

The bet is starting to get him a tad. He told me to tell you thank you for the advice, he is going to do that now.
