Sounds like you got lateral epicondylitis also known as tennis elbow or golfer's elbow.

Tennis Elbow

You don't have to be playing tennis or golf to get the condition. Basically, the forearm extensor muscles through overuse or attempting support a lot of weight pulled the tendons that attach the muscle to the lateral epicondyle... microscopic tears form in the tendon which cause pain. Most improve and resolve with rest and physical therapy.

Yep, this is it. The picture in your link is exactly where the pain is at the moment.

question: will heavy deadlifts contribute to this condition because of the downward force that's being exerted on those tendons?
