What Causes A Painful Lump On The Wrist?

Hi, I have a lump about 8 cm up away from the wrist. It has been there for about 2 years or so. On and off, it is kinda painful. The shape is a little elonggated. Sometimes the arm is slightly weak (like now). What should I do? Is there any cause for concern or it is something that is common and harmless? Thanks so much
