hi,
Good evening, I went through your question would be answering it precisely,

1. Due to age sometimes a patient develops " Candidiasis " ( a Fungal Growth )
This usually happens on palate or tongue or corners of mouth due to humid conditions there.

2. Other conditions which we call it as " Red & White " lesions can not be rules.

3. Blisters are water filled cavities which causes more hypersensitive palate or tongue

I suggest u to immediately contact the Specialist dentist ( Oral Medicine & Radiology) who would help u out in this regards

Alternatively in the mean time u can apply OINTMENT TESS Twice Daily on affected area.

Hope my answer helps u to get information u required. Do get back without any hesitation for further questions
