Now I'm just wondering why this tired feeling remains, the pains I had are since long gone. Though I've just noticed that it isn't just my wrist, but my entire left arm. Overall, it's a lot, and I mean a LOT weaker than my right... :\

Gutter, lol, with my left arm being so much weaker as it is, I'd fall over instantly!
It could be scar tissue. It tends to adhere to soft tissue and restricts full range of motion. A good massage therapist can loosen the adhesions over time. It could also be nerve damage. Chronic tennis elbow will have those symptoms. You really should see someone about it.
