What Causes Joint Pain, Swelling In The Ankles And Red Nodule All Over The Body?

I recently had strep and now I am getting pain in my joints, swelling in my ankles as well as little red nodules all over my body. My doctor says that it may have affected my kidney and has prescribed predisone for treatment of the inflammation. The longer I m on my feet the worse I feel. Should I be keeping off my feet? Can this effect my kidney permanently? What symptoms should I be looking for to indicate kidney failure?
