does the femoral nerve turn into the saphenous nerve
Saphenous nerve The saphenous nerve (long or internal saphenous nerve) is the largest cutaneous branch of the femoral nerve. It is a strictly sensory nerve, and has no motor function.

Pulse Pressure waves generated by the heart in systole move the arterial walls. Forward movement of blood occurs when the boundaries are pliable and compliant. These properties form enough to create a palpable pressure wave.
Vein Veins are less muscular than arteries and are often closer to the skin. There are valves in most veins to prevent backflow.
