What Causes Intense Itching On The Ankles And Feet?

For the past couple of days I have experienced intense itching on the tops of my feet and my ankles. I have had no exposures (that I am aware of) to any plant irritants, insect exposures etc. I do have kidney disease, but have not noticed any swelling or puffiness of my feet.
