Suggest Treatment For Hard Lump On Cheek Due To Injury

I bumped into the edge of a steel closet an developed a nasty bump/ bruise on the left cheek last Thursday. The swelling has mostly gone down but I have a hard lump on the cheek (hematoma?). Does a gentle massage help dissolve it faster or should I leave it alone. What about hot compressed? Thanks for your response.

Hi,
From history it seems that there might having hematoma now localize at one part producing bump.
Apply ice pack 2-3 times a day for few days.
Ok and take care.
