When most people are talking about a hematoma, they're not just talking about discoloration from under-the-skin bleeding. Hematomas are often welt-like and hard to the touch -- so you were correct in thinking a tumor can be shaped like a hematoma. This is from when you bleed, but it doesn't escape your skin, and instead collects SubQ.
Sorry, pointless knowledge
