Sprains vary in how long they take to heal, but in my own personal experience, I regain decent movement without pain in just over a week, and am fully healed by the middle of the second week.

Don't keep using the sprained joint, if at all possible. Sprains are not like breaks in that they do NOT heal back stronger. This also means you could easily re-injure it at a later date, so keep that in mind when doing whatever caused the initial sprain.
