In reply to captainawesome :
Yeah, when mine was really bad, I couldn't really pick anything up, pull anything toward me, or control anything at arm's length. Like, I could still do push-ups or bench press, but hold a pitcher of water and pour a glass out of it? Forget it. Couldn't use an impact wrench (well, I did, but I shouldn't have), couldn't really pull on a breaker bar. On the plus side, I got a lot better at doing things with my non-dominant hand. I'm way more ambidextrous now.
But yeah, kinesio tape (I used RockTape, but there are a bunch of them out there), and as soon as it stops hurting enough, exercises.
For the tape, I found a simple cross pattern worked best. 5 inch strip across my arm just below the elbow, centered on where it hurt the most. 10 inch strip down the length of my arm from a couple inches above the elbow to a couple inches above the wrist. Intersection of the two pieces of tape as close as possible to where the pain is the sharpest. Watch some YouTube videos and you'll probably see some of them doing this pattern. You can buy the stuff pre-cut into 10 inch strips which makes this pattern fast and easy to do. It would last me 5-7 days per application on average, although wearing long sleeves makes it peel off faster. I also found I could stretch the tape significantly more than the directions recommended, and got more support that way without seeming to sacrifice much durability, but y'know, ease into it.
For exercises, I pretty much just focused on doing the wrist extension and wrist flexion movements (pictured here) and just doing those once a day made all the difference. Finally giving in and doing the exercises (like my wife said I should from the beginning...) was the turning point between repeatedly reaggravating it and actually feeling better and going longer without the tape until I didn't need it anymore. It's been months since I've done any exercises now and I can't remember the last time I felt any pain in that elbow. Of course, since I've done all this talking about it now, I should probably do another set of exercises before bed tonight just for maintenance :)
Again, good luck, hope this helps.
