Where does JIRA saves the attachments related to tickets? I want to backup only the screen-shot images and documents found on my JIRA site. Does it save it in MySQL BLOB column types?

From service project sidebar, select Project settings > General in the Extension for Jira Service Management section. Go to the Show Attachments section.
By default, Confluence stores attachments in the attachments directory within the configured Confluence home folder.
According to JRA-23758 (now duplicate of JRA-19873):
At current state, attachments in JIRA are stored inside attachments/project-name, in the hierarchy below:
- attachments
|- project-name
|- issue key
That is actually an issue:
Since attachments are associated with issue keys, this could pose a problem for those on a Linux/UNIX platform. The ext3 filesystem can only have a maximum of 32,000 subdirectories per directory. The ext4 filesystem has fixed this limitation and increase its size to 64,000 subdirectories per directory.
The problem creeps in when you have 65,000 issues per project. If this was the case, then JIRA would not be able to save any more attachments and this would be problematic.
