Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
As far as the blisters over the palate and the oral mucosa can be secondary to herpes virus infection. This can occur secondary to stress or following antibiotic therapy. The coated tongue can be a fungal infection secondary to the course of antibiotics. Nothing be panic. Blisters are self limiting, this will subside in a week. For the pain you can take topical analgesic like choline salicylate and topical anesthetic like lignocaine. For the coated tongue you can do a proper tongue brushing and do saline gargling.
I hope I have answered your query. Take care
