Try sliding your saddle back a centimeter or so, and lowering it about half of that. A saddle that doesn't have enough setback induces you to hunch your back and carry too much weight on your hands, wrists, arms, and shoulders. Most riders sit too far forward, and when they can't reduce the upper-body stress they start purchasing short riser stems and gel-padded gloves and handlebar tape, which nevertheless fail to address the problem. Learning to sit on the bike with a straight back, shoulders high, chest expanded, head looking straight up the road, and torso bent forward from the hips, will help. So will massage and chiropractic therapy.
Saddle setback is a controversial area among fitters. Some cling to the old KOPS (knee over pedal spindle) rule, which is debunked by the example of countless professional cyclists. Steve Hogg, a premier fitter in Australia, moves you back until you can support your neutral hands-over-the-hoods position with no support from your hands. Peter White, a US custom framebuilder, and I arrive at generally the same territory by saying set the saddle so your center of gravity is over your feet, or the bottom bracket.
Once you get the saddle positioned, look for a stem and handlebar combination that give you enough extension without creating the sensation of crawling out of the back seat of a small car when you stand up to sprint or climb.
