What Causes A Growth On The Hand In Between The Fingers?

I have what appears to be a cyst/growth on my right hand between my index finger and middle finger. The hand is very swollen, the growth is pushing the fingers further apart. You can see this mostly on the top of the hand, but it is visible from the palm too. It is getting very painful and I can t unscrew a cap off a water bottle. I have had no illness or injury to this area. .???
