Specializes in Nephrology and Dialysis

If the symptom eases with local massage or rest (no abdominal wall movement) the pain is likely due to strained muscles. Try to recall what you did yesterday stressed those muscles too much. Take acetaminophen or apply cold compress for a day or two then the symptom will resolve.
