The hematoma she had was caused by a clot, not the other way around, AFAIK. I have a friend who had something like this in her arm (the scary thing is that I have had THREE exceptionally fit female friends in their 30s and 40s diagnosed with clots just in the past 6 months--one in her arm, one in her leg, one in her head).
