How long should swelling last?
 
Long story short, I was jumped. How long should the swelling/soreness last. I didn't go to a hospital because I didn't think I was bleeding that badly. But seriously, how long should the swelling last?

swelling where? and really, a hospital is a good idea.

Go to the hospital dude. There's no telling how long it will last.

If there is any comparison, I took a bad fall down concrete steps and was sore for about a week and a half. I went to the ER and they hooked me up with some meds though.

I broke my foot more than 8 weeks ago and it's still swollen. It really depends. Get it checked out, please.

Alright.

what they said...get medial attention and depending on what's going on...if you have any bleeding either anally or you are coughing up blood...then it's serious.

ANd not trying to get on you but you know better than to ask GC this stuff right man? :)

Seriously, if you think you are hurt bad, go see someone ASAP.

If it lasts for more than 4 hours see a doctor. Oh, sorry read your post now.

At least go to a promptcare/clinic/emergentcare something like that.

Yeah, I'm going to paitent first in the morning.

Maybe they thought you were somebody else. It happens, especially if it's at night. But get yourself checked out, man.

LOL You beat me to it.

Dude, go to the hospital, not now but RIGHT NOW.

Sidenote: who still jumps people?

Did you know them? Because I can't imagine any other reason why you wouldn't go to the police (which I don't think you have as you tried to skip on a doctor).
