Hello
As you have said you do exercises regularly , then feeling of lutter at right lung base could be muscle spasm or fasiculations.
Since your ecg , aio seems to be normal , then muscle relaxant can solve your problem, if it stays more then x-ray is recommended.
Chest and abdominal muscles are the biggest in the body , and they do present like you have said when there is a spasm.
Hope this helps.
Take care
