Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The brown red spots near the uvula can be the minor salivary glands or it can be fordyces spots. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. If it is a fordyces spot or minor salivary gland, nothing to worry, these are normal variants.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
