Hi. Are you taking any blood thinning medication or do you have any bleeding tendencies? If the answer is "no" then I would suggest that your symptoms can be managed at home with simple pain relief. If you begin to vomit then you should go to your nearest Emergency Department to get checked out. I hope this helps.
