hello,
it is a varicose vein as nerves do not expand like that unless it is neuroma or a fibroma. I would advise you to get a duplex doppler scan of both the legs as early as possible and consult a vascular surgeon in this regard. Also avoid self medications and avoid trauma to the leg. In case you notice pain or sweeling call your emergency number. I hope i have answered your query. Take care
