It depends- if your dip your hand in cool water, it might take half a minute at least, but if your finger is not treated, only a few minutes, but it won't hurt.

How long does it take for swelling on your forehead goes away after a hard hit on cement?

First, swelling is a good sign, it means fluid is not building up inside your brain. It may take several hours to decrease. Be aware of dizziness or slurred speech, this may be a sign of a concussion. Based on personal experience, swelling on the forehead will go down after a day or two, but then the area around the eyes will swell as this is where the blood drains to. After about 4 days, the swelling will fade away.
