What Causes An Itchy, Sore Vein On My Knee Cap?

I was sitting at the park and reached down to itch my knee, it was very sore and there is a raised vein the size of a quarter on my kneecap. It is very sore to touch. I did not hit my knee cap at all...can anyone help explain what this is. It is the color of a bruise. It is like a swollen vein.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Respected Sir, hi it seems the case of Cellulitis development through bite of some insect . you require ice application 3 times a day to the affected part. In my clinic I would recommend following drugs to my patients 1. Tab. Cefixime (200)mg 2. Tab. Ranitidine (150)mg 3. Tab. Diclofenac-serratiopeptidase if no drug sensitivity history ,all tab mor and evening after meals for 3 days. But as these are prescribed drugs you have to get it checked by your family doctor dear thanks regards
