How long will it be swollen

Is anyone able to tell me how long I should expect my toe to remain swollen with a fracture.
Its been two weeks now since I fractured the toe, I am getting around on it without any real problem, a little tender at times and have to be careful, but no problems.
BUT the toe is still very swollen, and seems to get sore from the swelling.
Xray shows a small non displaced fracture in the proximal phalanx of the big toe.

Do you think I have done something more to it than just a fracture?
