I got a crick in my neck from looking back and forth back and forth.
Translating from/to a paper source, were you? That one usually gives me neck and back pains, too. There are tricks though... like writing a translation version in shorthand (or something resembling it) while keeping your eyes on the source, and then transcribing the actual translation. Still, hard on the hands.
