Hi,
A sprain can take weeks to heal. It depends on the severity. You might want to visit a doctor to have the severity of the injury assessed.

Hello. Thank you for your question.
Symptoms of a broken toe include pain, swelling, stiffness, bruising, deformity, and difficulty walking. A broken toe is diagnosed with a medical examination, which may include X-rays. To help decrease pain and swelling in a broken toe, elevate the foot, ice the injury, and stay off the foot as much as possible.
