Hematoma Aspirated Today

What you are describing is what my doc called a seroma.  Is that the same thing as a hematoma?  

A seroma is clear fluid where a hematoma contains red blood cells. The pocket of fluid collection I think is the same type of situation though.

if you go to wikipedia.org    check out the hematoma picture. It looks more like a big bruise.  The seroma describes more what we have.
