WASCO, OREGON. PRESERVING THE PAST, POWERING THE FUTURE. The City of Wasco, Oregon is situated in the gently rolling hills of the Mid-Columbia Plateau, eight miles south of the Columbia River and centered between the Deschutes River and the John Day River. Just a stone's throw from the Oregon Trail, Wasco was settled by ranchers, wheat farmers and merchants.
Swollen ankles and swollen feet can be caused by a variety of things such as pregnancy, medications, diseases (congestive heart failure, diabetes). Treatment depends on the cause.
Swelling can be reduced through elevating the ankle higher than the hip. Applying ice to the ankle also alleviates swelling, as do anti-inflammatory medications. The ankle is likely to remain somewhat swollen for up to six months after surgery. Once the ankle is able to bear some weight, swelling is likely to go down. Learn more about Breaks & Sprains
