Hi,
Applying an ice pack would have helped at the time of injury, by constricting the blood vessel and reducing the size of the lump. But later on, hot fomentation helps by hastening the healing process. If the area becomes very hot and tender, then there is possibility of infection and a doctor should be consulted.
Best wishes.
