what specific tricep exercises are you doing?

I get bad elbow pain from skullcrushers, that's why I don't do them.
I do close-grip bench press for triceps. It hurts a little sometimes but not enough to stop me from doing them like skullcrushers.

yep, just like GTC, i get pain from skull crushers but pressing of any type gives me no pain at all. so i don't do skull crushers ever.

Try some glucosamine sulfate. Winter reccomended it to me, and ever since I started taking them a lot of my pain has gone down.

I stopped them 2 years ago!!
I used to get as much as 45lbs a side for 6 & have to stop from the pain!!
Sucks too as they really help my bench
I switched to close grip to start on smith machine and super with alt curls
Last night after shoulders:
Close grip 135 for 20 reps then 15 seconds later alternate d-bell 25 for 15 reps,rest 1:30 then do 185 close grip & so on!
