General Surgeon 's  Response
Is the vein feeling hard or looking darker in color than the other side? Is there any pain or redness along the vein? It could be spontaneous thrombosis of the vein for which you can apply Thrombophob or Heparin ointment. If there is redness then you should take anti inflammatory medicines like Tab Combiflam or Ibuprofen. Do let us know. Take care.
