Ohh god I hated those days! I had the same problem. I didn’t play for months. I use these now: Bodyprox Elbow Protection Pads 1... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072B9K85Q?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share and have no issues. I don’t know if it helps with pain as I don’t have any now, but it surely helps prevent a second bursitis occurring.
I bought a pair of these as some low-cost protection: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072B9K85Q?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details
They cover halfway down my forearm and halfway up the bicep where it usually meets my riding shirt. That typically only leaves a gap between it and my riding gloves.
They're quite flexible but they don't breathe particularly well. Very sweaty in hot weather, but it's really not that bad. I rarely notice it until the end of the ride.

I use these. They're not some fancy brand or agg but they're good quality and comfortable.
