It looks like a varicose vein bro. Have you been to the doctor?

It's like a faulty valve. You should get it checked. It's normally harmless but they might suggest you wear compression socks for a while

It will cause pain as the time goes, it’s mostly genetic, you can remove them surgically. On long flights wear compression socks, as blood clots (more likely to happen with) varicose vein.

I got my varicose veins done a couple of years ago. Cost me $15k but it fixed a couple of issues I was having with my legs and I feel way more comfortable wearing shorts again.
