Patial dentures can take up to 6mos and sometimes even to a full year to get accustomed to. Also frequent adjustments in that time period may be needed in order to eliminate sore spots or pressure areas caused by clasps or bite adjustments.
A couple days. It is normal to return for some adjustment after that.
I am assuming they don't fit well, because they should feel ok at the start. Please talk to the dentist that made they, they may need adjustment
Every patient is different. Adjusting to, or settling into, any sort of dentures takes several weeks to a few months.
