How Can Strained Abdominal Muscles Be Treated?

I have what feels like strained abdominal muscles in my lower right quadrant after running two weeks ago. Does not hurt when sitting or laying down. Hurts like a sore muscle when walking or doing pushups. No change in bowel habits. No fever. No bulges in my gut. However, I do have a light non painful pressure under my right rib cage from time to time when laying down. Im a 48 year old male.
