What Causes Vein Enlargement At The Base Of My Thumb?

A vein at the base of my rt thumb suddenly became enlarged and painful. About 5 minutes later bruising appeared and the pain vanished. This happens a few times a year in different location in my fingers or base of fingers. Is this anything to be concerned about?
