Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The red bumps over the back of the tongue can be a inflamed circumvallate papillae secondary to nutritional deficiency or irritation by smoking. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
