Along with physiotherapy there are other methods we could attempt to reduce the discomfort and avoid recurrence of symptoms. Ranging from bracing, biomechanical chain retraining, local injections, and so on. Try to visit a PMR physician ( physiatrist) for a comprehensive management.

Hi, glad that you have almost recovered. However your condition was chronic and your pain is better but as u mentioned it occured due to repeated stress on your tricep muscle which somewhere means your muscle needs to be trained and your biomechanics needs to be corrected to prevent further injury as your goal is gymming.
Next Steps
Get yourself consulted and go for a rehab and functional training.
Health Tips
Avoid repeated movements and excessive weight training
