It appears that you may have sprained a muscle near your elbow. I suggest that you avoid any strenuous activity for the next three weeks, apply a local gel/spray and take prescriptions medicines from your local doctor only if the pain is very severe. You should also avoid physiotherapy except to take Short wave diathermy or Interferential therapy. Do you do a proper warmup/ cooldown and stretching before/after your exercise ?
