A member asked:
What is the bump in my vein on my upper thigh?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
a varicose vein: Veins that have texture (you can feel them) and are larger than 3 mm are usually varicose veins. This is true if they are discolored or not. These can be removed by a vein specialist or phlebologist.
