Brief Answer:
gum infection, scaling

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your reply.
The yellow stains can be because of the smoking and deposits. The bleeding gums are because of the gum infection secondary to the deposits over the teeth.
No need to panic. Consult a good oral physician and have your teeth cleaned (scaling and root planing). And follow the previously told guidelines for good dental health. Importantly, quit the habit of smoking.
I hope my answer will help you. Take care.
