What Causes Bleeding Gums?

Hi
My gums bleed when i brush but i have blood in my spit in the morning when i just wake up(before tooth brush)
Sometimes in the middle of the sleep
But last night it happened just when i was sitting i tasted blood in my spit
I took torch to see which gum is bleeding but couldnt figure out
Can i know what other things could cause bleeding and which tests to be done
I have no cough no chest diseases
I workout n try to eat healthy as much ask i can
Thanks :)

helloo...read thru ur query....1st of all i must say dont panic and get stressed..stress wont reduce ur problem it always increses problems...now bleeding of gums while brushing can be due gingivitis which can be reduced by meeting a periodontist and get it cleaned...bleeding from mouth when simply sitting can be due to some systemic cause...so v have to find the cause..it can be done bytaking a blood test....and meet a physician ...he may tell various tests and get it done..and get ur problem treated...u can keep ur mouth and gum clean by brushing twice daily and tongue scraping..use dental floss and listerene mouthwash(good for gingiva)..these all can reduce bleeding fron gum...be cool and calm...stressfree mind can be best medicine and can solve all ur problems..hope ur benefitted something from this reply..have a healthy day!!!
