an emergency first responder technique would be to apply ice to the hematoma. (put a gauze on the skin first then apply the ice - don't put the ice directly on the skin)
this should reduce the swelling.
a hematoma is a more serious bruise so the best cure is usually letting the body take care of itself.
if the hematoma is life-threatening then the emergency first responder should call Advanced Life Support or seek medical attention
