I've been dealing with these bumps on the back of my tongue for the past 20 days. Sometimes my ear starts to hurt too, and I feel discomfort kind of at the back of my teeth. Do you think these symptoms are connected, and should I be worried about them? Could this be something serious?

I've got these sore blister-like things at the back of my throat, and I'm kinda worried. My sister thinks it's strep throat, but someone else mentioned it might be related to something sexual, while another person just said they're blisters. I'm confused and a bit concerned. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?
