4-6 weeks on average
6 to 12 months and if the injury was bad enough it may never completely resolve.
Months. That is a bad injury that needs treatment.
Time frame for swelling will vary. I recommend you schedule an appointment with a foot and ankle surgeon (podiatrist) for evaluation
If you had a true dislocation of your ankle, you likely require surgery. If you had an ankle sprain, which is very different from a dislocation, the swelling can last for several months depending on what structures were injured
