Swollen ankles, shortness of breath, back pain and itching may all be signs of impaired kidney function.
Painful urination is not much related to that. It can be a sign of urinary track infection. You should do an urine analysis and uroculture . You may need to take antibiotics and can't neglect it taking count of your impaired kidney function.
Empirically I would treat it with ciprofloxacine.
