Word! Hematoma  Word! Hematoma   (En español: Hematoma)  Say:
hee-muh-toh-muh  This word looks a little like tomato, but you
don't grow hematomas in the garden! Hematoma is just a medical
word for bruise, or black and blue mark. The "hema" part of the
word means blood, which is what you see under your skin if you
get a bad bump. When you get a bad bump, the blood vessels break
and the blood leaks out. But then your body goes to work to
clean things up. Before you know it, the black and blue color
has faded to green or yellow and then it's all gone.
