Bleeding gums. Don't be alarmed when gums bleed, but that just means those areas of your mouth need attention ASAP. Plaque (tartar) is probably the culprit.
Get to a dental hygienist as soon as you can! In the meantime, brush the area with a soft, I repeat SOFT toothbrush, and floss the bleeding areas. Don't let the bleeding alarm you. You wont hurt those areas. They are bleeding because they need more attention. (You need to get the plaque off them by a registered hygienist)
