Hi Dear ,

As per your query you have blisters on roof of mouth near uvula is because of bacterial/ viral infection which sometimes spread in the tissues around the tonsils and produce pus and it could be due to minor salivary gland cysts. Reduced immunity of body is major cause for this. Need not to worry about it. I would suggest you to do warm saline gargles. Drink hot milk with half spoon of turmeric powder. Take Advil or Tylenol for pain and swelling. Consult ENT specialist for proper examination. Doctor may order blood test or throat swab test .Doctor may prescribe antibiotics course (penecillin or amoxicillin) for at least 10 days , anti viral drug like acyclovir or anti allergic drug depending upon the diagnosis. Taker diet rich in vitamin C. Apply lignocaine containing gel if it is painful. Apply dologel on these blisters. Maintain proper oral hygiene.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
