dear friend,
you have not mentioned since when you are having this symptom and how it started. do you have any other swelling in the same limb. it could be a enlarged tortous vein ( varicose vein) , infected bursa or a ganglion. you need not be panicked. Better not to wait. Go and consult a surgeon.
