No coitus: For now, i would recommend pelvic rest (no coitus), no heavy lifting and no exercising. These restrictions are temporary, the placenta will migrate up with time. A repeat ultrasound should be performed in about 1-2 months to confirm resolution.

Probably not.: As the pregnancy progresses the placenta usually 'moves' up. Your doctor will likely order a follow up u/s to be sure.
