What Causes A Red Hard Bump On The Upper Thigh?

I have a hard red hit to thr touch bump on the upper left thigh. I woke up in the middleof the night scratching it and it felt like a burning sensation. I had something similar about a year ago in the same spot which is why i am thinking it isnt a bug bite.

Hi,Dear,Good Morning.Thanks for the query to my HCM online- clinic .I studied your query in-depth.
-In my opinion the hard bump on lt upper thigh-appears to be insect-bite-by the fact that it happened at midnight.
-A similar happening history- would suggest a bug bite mostly.
-Hope this would resolve your worry-some query.Wellcome again to HCM .Have a good day.
