Mine stayed slightly swollen for 2 months after it was healed. Keeping it elevated when you can will help. The problem is the darn thing is at the bottom of our bodies instead of the top (unless you can walk around on your hands). Between gravity and being used constantly, it takes a lot longer for the swelling to go down than you'd hope.
