Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, as you have swollen painful gums dont worry it can be due to periodontal problem .

You should consult dentist and go for Scaling and root planning.

Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day.

Do chlorhexidine mouthwash twice daily.

Hope this will help you.

Wishing you good health.
