Interesting! Had a combination of shoulder and elbow / arm issues that I put down to squatting. Will try this next workout.

Obscene quantities of fish oil (20-30g/day)
Stretching for absolutely everything in your arms, and any stretch where you find noteworthy tension you should be holding the stretch until the tension goes away (can take less than 10 seconds when there's not much tension, can take several minutes when there's a lot of tension to work out). Build up to doing this several times per day.
High rep isolation exercises for your forearms. Think 50 reps. Go very light, the goal here in the beginning is not strength, it's blood flow. Build up SLOWLY, until the exercise becomes heavy enough to be considered strength training, then keep going. Keep in mind here that the weight your muscles can handle is significantly more than what your damaged tendons can handle, and it's the strength of your tendon that you're trying to build.
Ice post-workout.
Alternate ice/heat on the area as much as possible in the rest of your time.


And above all, keep your head about you. Tendonitis can take a long time to get rid of, and it can be a real mind-f**k after you've had it for a couple of years and doubt whether it will ever go away; and you start realising that it's gone from tendonitis to tendonosis and you're pretty much f**ked.
Or at least, that's what was going through my head a few years ago. I have 0 pain now; I train my forearms extremely hard and they take it in stride without any sign of tendonitis; but it's been an extremely long road to rehab to that point.

A few lifting related things that have been known to help:

- Very high rep, low weight hammer curls

- thick handled wrist roller (this really helped me back in the day, I made my own with some tough cord from B&Q and a thick 3in pipe. You can hang it off a pin in hte power rack and do it arms out in front)

That's what I was doing, but really just do as much as you can do without making it worse.
