Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
This looks to be a ruptured vein..
Get color doppler examination of the lower limbs to know the exact position of veins. . .
This will get resolved on its own, but remember , one attack like this and there can be a possibility of another such incidence , hence the need to get this checked and to rule out other possibilities.
I find this answer helpful
