Hematoma
A hematoma, also spelled haematoma, or blood suffusion is a localized bleeding outside of blood vessels, due to either disease or trauma including injury or surgery and may involve blood continuing to seep from broken capillaries. A hematoma is benign and is initially in liquid form spread among the tissues including in sacs between tissues where it may coagulate and solidify before blood is reabsorbed into blood vessels. An ecchymosis is a hematoma of the skin larger than 10 mm.They may occur among and or within many areas such as skin and other organs, connective tissues, bone, joints and muscle. A collection of blood (or even a hemorrhage) may be aggravated by anticoagulant medication (blood thinner). Blood seepage and collection of blood may occur if heparin is given via an intramuscular route; to avoid this, heparin must be given intravenously or subcutaneously.

hematoma
A hematoma is a localized swelling or collection of blood outside of the blood vessels, usually in liquid form within a tissue. This can occur due to injury or a disease that leads to rupture or leakage of blood vessels. Depending on its size and location, a hematoma may or may not present clinical symptoms. Hematomas can occur anywhere in the body, including the brain, muscles, and organs.

Hematoma
A hematoma or haematoma, is a localized collection of blood outside the blood vessels, usually in liquid form within the tissue. An ecchymosis, commonly called a bruise, is a hematoma of the skin larger than 10mm. Internal bleeding is generally considered to be a spreading of blood within the abdomen or skull, not within muscle. It is not to be confused with hemangioma which is an abnormal build up of blood vessels in the skin or internal organs.
