No, it's more vague. 'Give it a day or two' means 'please wait for a few days'-- tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the succeeding day perhaps. PS: I see it's your first post.

"Give it a day or two" has the pattern "give (someone/something) a (time unit) or two".
ex: Give it an hour or two for total cooling down.
Give me a minute or two I will finish this.
That gives him a year or two to decide if he wants to move to Detroit.
