White Bumps On Roof Of Mouth. No Sexual Contact. What Could It Be?

I have little white bumps on the roof of my mouth . I don't think it could be herpes because I'm a virgin never had oral sex and I haven't kissed anyone in over a little over a year . They don't really hurt they're.more irritating. I feel as if sometimes they're smaller than before and sometimes theres less there than last time I noticed it . They're not big at all but I can feel them with my tongue

Deep caries or periodontal infection can result in such bumps.
Pus has to be drained and curetted.
Take complete course of medicines.
Swish with lukewarm saline and betadine frequently.
