Painless hard lump just below right lateral rib cage after moderate exercise, less prominent after resting. cannot see from surface, have to palpate.

Lump: it is really hard to say without seeing it. The fact that it eases with relaxation may suggest some element of muscle spasm and information. Could be a benign fatty tumor such as a lipoma but nonetheless warrants an evaluation with your doctor
