Each day when i wake up i have a 2-3in vein on my calf that protrudes. no pain, had red spot under skin by it last week. only in am for past 2months..

Protruding vein: Not likely to be a serious health issue. However an Ultrasound of the area with attention to the venous system is a simple, low cost, low risk diagnostic image that can help determine what it is and how to treat. Compression is the first line therapy for bad veins. Be well.
