What Causes Pain And Mild Swelling In The Left Hand?

Awoke to pain in my left hand only. It seems to be located at the base of the thumb. No injuries to it. Does appear to be slightly swelled. It started a couple days ago but seems to have gotten much worse this morning. Yesterday went to work and only had mild issue. moving at work seemed to relax it some.
