Vein enlargement: I would suggest that a physician see you to verify that this is indeed a vein or vascular structure. If so, it may be due to an underlying circulation problem that could be more serious, like something obstructing the flow of blood from other veins back into your central circulation - or if it is an artery, same concern.
