So the tendon is injured because of repetitive strain it get on it .but not everyone gets it on doing the same pattern of work or exercises.many time the restriction or strain in the other part of the body is reflected on the muscle or tendon which he injured, one has to find out the source of tendon which is causing the extra strain on ur elbow.
Finding and treatment that can cause relief and speedy recovery and helps to prevent it again .an Osteopath find the root cause and treat it for better results .after that you might require some rehabilitation for the recovery .a tension or restrictions in neck or thoracic spine can cause more pressure on the tenon in arm and forearm.
So find the root cause and get it treated.followed by rehabilitation exercises etc.you will be able to get better result which last for long.

It take 6months of time to recover from rsi, in some cases it may take long time to to heal.
Ice/cold pack, splints to be used along with physiotherapy sessions.

Tennis elbow does take time to resolve.
You could try manual therapy with mobilization and strengthening exercises.
