Those are taste buds, slightly raised and larger than the rest, and can look like blisters, but they're just taste buds.

How do you get rid of tongue piercing keloids?

The tongue doesn't form Keloids, the bumps on your tongue are possibly due to mismatched metals in the barbell. This is called galvanic corrosion and will cause the tongue to react by forming lumps by the piercing. Purchase a good quality barbell from a professional body piercing studio and replace the barbell in your tongue. You should start to see a change in the lumps within 48~72 hours. Junk jewellery is everywhere, be sure to purchase quality jewellery from a reputable vendor like a body piercing studio.
