Pain in hands. What could this be?

In the muscle in the palm of my hand, right below my thumb i have severe cramps. The muscle seems to cramp and then knot up.. then the veins that run up my wrist and across that muscle appear to swell...Its very painful . And it occurs at random times in either hand. Does anybody know what this may be?

Update:

also when this occurs i have limited movement of my hands. it hurts to open them all the way and hurts to close my hand into a fist.
