What Causes An Enlarged Vein On My Neck Along With Discomfort?

The vein on right side of my neck is enlarged right above my collarbonein a small area. Ultrasounds ruled out an aneurysm. There is discomfort not too unlike muscle strain in same area almost constantly, often relieved by supporting the area with my hand. Is this related to the enlargement? My doctors seem unconcerned, but i am. Thank you
