Suggest Treatment For Swollen Feet And Ankles When Diagnosed With MS

I have MS, am wheelchair-bound, but walk (with my walker) when someone is around just in case . Both my feet and ankles are swollen inspite of compression stockings and putting my feet up whenever I can. Is this anything to worry about? Also, can the swollenness be remedied so putting on shoes is not so difficult? Frustrated in Westfield, N J
