I got tennis elbow two years ago from Crossfit. It hurt so bad that I would just sit at work and rub my forearm all day. The arm band with the little plastic pillow in it helped. I also bought one of those hard rubber donuts from Sports Authority and squeezed it several times a day...strengthening your grip and help alleviate tennis elbow. I know there are conflicting opinions on icing, but I found that it helped.
This video helped me as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=we4UoiKG3Co I didn't buy the products he uses, but you can improvise. For the flex bar he uses at the end, you could just use a rolled up hand towel for both exercises. Figuring out what triggers it is key. I tried to rejoin Crossfit and ended up feeling it coming on in both elbows, so I stopped going immediately and haven't returned.
