I think you should visit a dentist as soon as possible since this problem has been ignored by you before this so no point postponing it until it gets worse. Hopefully it's nothing serious, might be just swollen and bleeding gums. Commonly known as Gingivitis. So a dental visit is a must. Regards

You need to visit periodontist soon. It can also happen due to vitamin deficiency but a visit to periodontist will first eliminate local factors in the mouth. If possible consult a physician and get the routine blood investigations too

Please take him to a dental clinic to see if his gums are bleeding due to periodontal disease
