Bulging Vein In Right Side Of Body, Swelling. Taking Advil. Any Ideas?

Hello, my husband has a strange almost bulging vein on the right side of his body going down under his right arm. He had some pain in this area a week ago that felt like a pulled muscle. Yesterday he notice this strange slightly swollen vein appear . He went to dr this morning, dr just said keep eye on it and take Advil four times a day. If doesn't get better in four days go to doctor again. Any idea what this could be? Thank you
