Varicose like vein on penis?

Every since I was a kid I've had this vein on my penis shaft with a sort of lump to it but I am unable to remember how big it was as a child and now as an adult am unsure if it has grown. Sometimes it is extremely visible and other times its almost unnoticeable and I have no idea what affects this. This creates a problem for me because I've asked a doctor about this but when he took a look it wasn't very noticeable so he said it was normal. I am worried he thought it was a normal vein. These pics is the best I could do but its even hard to see here.  Should I be concerned?
