Q: how long does it take for swelling and redness to go away after getting a swollen toe? mine is still red and a little swollen after stubbing it 2 and a half weeks ago?

: Your toe should not still be red and swollen after 2 and a half weeks. It is important that you see your doctor or podiatrist immediately, especially if you are a diabetic, before you lose your toe.
