What Does A Popping Vein On The Elbow Post Workout Indicate?

About a month ago I was doing some bicep workouts like dumbbell curls, hammer curls and pull ups, and since then the cephalic vein in my inner elbow feels like it's popping or being plucked like a guitar string every time I extend my arm, just wondering why this is happening and why hasn't it gotten better yet?
