What does it mean when you have red bumps (mosquito bite like) on the back of your thighs and is from biggest to smallest?

Hives?: Bug-bite-like spots can be from many causes such as: bug bites (of course), hives, viral infections, medication causes, hot-tub rashes, heat rashes, reactions to lotions, allergic reactions to various things (including foods), internal disorders (such as kidney disease, auto-immune disease), etc... That means a rash that persists or is worrisome in appearance should be checked by a doctor.
