Here are some...: How big is the lesion? Have you had the occurrence of its related spontaneous bleeding? These info may help deduce and decide what could be done. Generally speaking, the odd to have this kind of bleeding is rare,but possible. Hence, there is no firm answer to this concern, but be aware of such and make sure of an availability for local medical facility in case of the rare event...

NO: Painkillers will not stop the bleeding: proceed to ER if pain or dizziness are prominent.
