Get examined: 8 months of wrist pain would suggest a wrist problem that may not improve without specific treatment.Tendinitis(de Quervain's),cartilage tears(tfcc),ganglion cysts,wrist ligament injuries(scapholunate ligament) are just a few of the problems which could be causing your persistent wrist pain.See an ORS for a detailed history,physical examination and xrays.Good Luck!
