Lump/bump in vein on leg?

Last night he was tickling me and I think I may have kicked his leg cause it tickled so much.. (I was moving like a crazy person) Anyway he got a small lump and it was painful.. Like a quarter size.. warm to the touch.. Maybe a vein.. We outlined it to see if it got bigger.. it actually disappeared in 20-30 minutes Confused Anyone have any idea? Could it have been a blood clot? Surprised He has been out of work for about 3 months now so I'm not sure.

    There are valves throughout our veins that regulate blood flow. If you kicked one of those, it may have been momentarily impaired allowing blood to pool.
