What Causes Bulging Vein In Legs?

I have a vein bulg in my legs on the outside of my shins between knee and ankle like a bubble under the skin on each leg. When I run say for a mile or so I have 2 or 3 more bulges above the large one towards the knee. After I rest they go away except the large one on each leg. If I squat down the bulges get larger, stand up they get smaller.
