Thanks for using Health Care magic.

Read your query.

Using a new tooth brush and a tooth paste will not cause any bleeding.Bleeding while brushing will be because of gingivitis(gums inflammed) or u may have put more pressure on the gums so it caused a little bleeding.

Get your teeth cleaned with the local dentist and use a mouth wash.

As for the faint feeling that should not have any relation with the brushing and maybe because of some other issues.If worried or is persistent consult a doctor.

Hope this was beneficial and u recover soon.

Thanks and regards.
