Itchy gums and tongue

I have been having itchy gums and my tongue is also paining since 6-7 days. My inner lip palette had also turned red (earlier it was very pale color). But there are no noticeable abruptions inside the mouth and I think that my mouth is a little swollen (though I can not differentiate any major difference in appearance, I feel it is swollen).
