What Do Swollen Red Bumps On Back Of The Tongue Indicate?

I have swollen red bumps on the back of my tongue. They are not painful and one is slightly larger than the other. Thet are very annoying and feels like a husk of popcorn stuck on your tongue. I have RA and currently taking Orencia infusions. I am very worried,what could it be?
