Suggest Treatment For Large Bruise Behind Right Calf After A Falling

Hello. I have a large bruise on the back of my right calf. The bruise was a very nasty one due to a fall on the ice. The bruise has yellowed in the center and stayed red and blues on the outside. It also has a very hard lump in the center underneath the yellow. Is this a blood clot or what?

Due to collection of blood there might having color changing on lump and bruise.
Apply ice pack 2-3 times a day for few days.
Ok and take care.
