First of all do not do vigrous exercise for long duration. Make a protocol start with low weight and low repetition and gradually increase both. Now take hot pack twice a day and gradually flex and extend elbow. Can quick relief can use volini or take muscle ralaxant

You mainly need to rest first. Ice packs can give you relief with mild biceps stretching. If pain is unbearable, take painkillers.
Next Steps
If it doesn't gives relief visit a doctor & get yourself checked properly.
Health Tips
If you are lifting very heavy weights while work-out, you need rest periods in between your sets like for atleast 2 mins.
