What Causes Lumps On The Side Of Neck?

I have two lumps coming out of a vein on the right side of my neck. The vein is straight down and the lumps are touching. They ve been there for as long as I can remember and two of my cousins have them as well. You can only see them when I m laughing, coughing, etc. Any ideas of what this is? Should I get it checked out?
