Tip of my tongue has a small patch of reddish tiny dots. does not hurt. recently had routine blood exams, everything came out fine. what can it be?

Give it time : You likely have a viral infection and need to give the dots time to heal. If they dots become painful, increase in size or do not go away then see a doctor.
