Regarding difficulty, discretion is often the better part of valor in BOTW; the game is designed so that you will regularly come across enemies that you are just not ready to fight yet, and a strategic retreat is often the best option. This is done to keep the world feeling tense and dangerous.
Don't worry; you can always come back later and whoop their sorry butts for some sweet revenge once you've accumulated more hearts, stamina, and better weapons/armour. :)
