I feel pain at my elbow when i'm working out my triceps (only) . what should i do ?

Back of the elbow: The back of the elbow is close to the insertion of the triceps tendon. It may be you need to change your exercise to avoid making this area more sore, so you can stretch it, and then build it stronger after the soreness subsides.
