Suggest Remedy For Pain And Tightness In Lower Right Abdomen

I had a laporascopy appendectomy 8 weeks ago and had a slow recovery initially as I had a two week rupture before surgery.I was on weight lift restriction until a few weeks back and have been slow to lift things, building on weight and not pushing it. I did pick up a 20 lb box a couple days ago and have felt tight in lower right abdomen since. Somewhat uncomfortable. Occasionally a dull pain.Does this sound like something muscular or like I should call for a appointment for dr to assess in person or with tests?
