Sore elbows?!

My right elbow, well the inside bend, has been sore for awhile now. I thought it was from throwing the ball for my dog with a ball launcher. However after weeks of not using it, it is still sore. Not as bad but still there.
Now today both are sore! Yesterday I did about 20 minutes of arm exercises so alot of bending my arms. Today I ran 10 Kms so my arms were again bent.
I don't know what this is or how I can get rid of it.

    Tendonitis. I have them in both elbows. It's chronic once you get it.

    Not too much you can do but try to rest them. Ice helps.

    I've had Tendonitis in my shoulder. I just try to drink a *kitten*-Ton of Water. Well... that & a couple of Advil makes any workout better!
