Could be related: Check with your doctor to rule out other possibilities. Blister on tongue-- recurrent-- could be viral in origin-- ie coxsackie or herpes. However inflammatory bowel disease ( ie crohns or ulcerative colitis) can present with such blisters. Then autoimmune diseases ( like lupus) can involve oral ulcers and bowel inflammation. Your doctor should help rule out all of above.

Yes: Popping not a good idea. Possible colitis or behcet syndrome.
