Recovering From Tendonitis

I got tendonitis in my left forearm last year and I couldn't play my violin for several months. I recently played in my school's production of the Wizard of Oz and I played for four hours, every day of the week and I had no pain.
However, now as I'm starting to try to practice, I've been getting slight pains. Does anyone know a good "regimen" of sorts to help me gain back my muscle in my forearm?
