Few days back i got the bruise the bruise is bluish black and around there is yellow colour is it a bruise or hematoma and how can i get rid of it faster ?

Improve blood flow. The bruise is pigment leaked into tissue from broken capillaries. It may be enough stain to resist earlier removal but if you apply gentile heat to the area the local blood flow may improve enough to draw it out sooner. The change would be subtle and may not be worth the effort.
