Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query red bumps on tongue and blisters in throat could be due to poor immunity of your body and viral/ bacterial infection. I would suggest you to :-

- Do warm saline rinses several times a day .

- Do beta-dine rinses twice a day .

- Apply orabase gel on sores .

- Take one spoon of honey in lukewarm water daily in the morning to boot your immunity.

Consult ENT specialist for proper examination to find out the exact cause. Doctor may order blood test , throat swab test and endoscopy of esophagus. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics , anti allergic drug steroid ointment for cold sores or aspirin.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
