Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...

As per your complain blisters inside the mouth on mucous membranes is not a sign of oral cancer and it can be either due to common condition known as APTHOUS ULCERS or CANKER SORES..
In case if it is not diagnosed as the cause then another cause can be cold sores caused by HERPES VIRUS 1.
Nothing to worry, consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and get treated according to the cause..
If viral infection is diagnosed the physician can advise you to get a viral culture done to confirm the diagnosis..

As of now do warm saline gargles..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
