The red bumps may or may not be related to your chest pain and sore throat.  I would monitor the red bumps and see if they stay or go after your chest pain and sore throat heal.  If they're still there, then i would recommend a biopsy of the area.

You went to the ER for a red/white bump under your tongue?  Hard to say but it could be a frictional keratosis underneath your tongue.  That's when your tongue rubs against the top of your teeth and can cause it to get a rough patch or area, like a callus.  But if its red/white in color, I would still advise you go to an oral surgeon and get a biopsy.  They can look under it with a microscope and tell you whats going on.
