I have a bone bruise in the mid talar dome and a soft tissie sprang. how long should it be swollen and turn color when it is not elevated?

Maybe prolonged: Consider wrapping it to decrease swelling, resting by not walking so much. Icing will decrease the swelling. The bruise will take its course upto three weeks as long as you don't reinjure it.
