Bumps on palate: Might be abrasions from food with some inflammation, allergic reaction, or possibly something that was already there that you just noticed. Either give it a couple of days and see if it goes away or see your dentist to know for sure what it is. If it is still there in 2 weeks have it examined regardless.

Incisive papilla: It could be incisive papilla. You better go to see a dentist or oral specialist about that because the bumps could be other disease too.
