Maybe you are having viral or throat infection. You need proper medication.
For painful and infected gums you can do warm saline water rinses two to three times a day, use mouthwash.
But you should consult with doctor online or offline for better guidance and treatment options.

Maybe of viral origin or heavy calculus deposits.
Could be due to hormonal changes incase of pregnancy or menstruation. Please consult a dentist asap

Hi....looks like manifestation of viral infection. You can consult a near by doctor to confirm. Usually viral infections are self limiting. Till then your doctor will give symptomatic treatment.
