You said you had: intense pain in the elbows

Both of them? I have no suggestion. That sounds like a serious issue.

Several years ago on a canoe trip I did something that caused intense pain in one elbow and paddling the canoe for hours every day made it much worse. After the trip it took months for that elbow to recover.
