Lump/Bruise on bottom of foot

After sitting on a bar stool at home yesterday, I stood up and felt a big lump on the bottom of my foot, in the padded area under my little toe.
I had only been sitting for 15 minutes — before then everything was fine.
The area has remained somewhat swollen for appr 20 hours and turned black (looks like blood underneath the skin).
The black appears to be dissipating.Could a blood vessel have spontaneously burst?
Will it heal on its own?
Thanks.
