Tennis Elbow for 7 months and counting

Hi, I got a wrist surgery last year (like 11 months ago), and it went all good apparently. The thing is that after I had my arm immobilized for too many days and lost my strength considerably, I may did some over effort and I got injured.

I was diagnosed with tennis elbow since March this year (7 months ago), so I did physiotherapy for like 40 sessions in total. Even when it seems to be a lot, I didn't get any better. Recently, I got 2 corticosteroid injection in the arm near the elbow, and nothing either.

I even stopped swimming and doing any big efforts with my arm, nothing. I'm desperate, I don't know what to do.

I appreciate any help.

Rodrigo.
