Workflows remain in starting state

Question

There is a production sharepoint site and qa sharepoint site. The workflows were made and tested in the qa site. I then made templates of all the list associated and added them to the production sharepoint site. After that I recreated all the workflows because
they were list workflows, and set them to go off when an item is created. However when ever an item is created all the workflows remain in a starting state and no amount of time changes it, for I still have a workflow starting from 2 days ago. What do I do
to resolve this problem? As well this will all made using SPD 2010 and sharepoint 2010
