The question that seems obvious to me is whether or not tuning down and putting a capo on helps your left arm. If not, the question of tuning down and using a capo, and the buzzing that results, is irrelevant.
You state that the buzzing is uniform at all frets on the relevant strings. That suggests the strings are too low for the combination of things you have. It then remains to be seen that lowering the tension, using a capo and then raising the strings to eliminate the resulting buzzing gets you anything in terms of the desired relief on your left arm.
