Read your query, as you have rash like red and yellow spot on gum do not be worried so much this can be common human fungal infection affects tongue , cheek , gums or it may be inflammation of gum due to improper oral hygiene .

Can you attach a image ( report ) of yellowish spot that will be more helpful for me to arrive at conclusion .

Based on the detail provided I will suggest you to maintain proper oral hygiene , Do XXXXXXX warm saline rinses two - three times a day, use Chlorhexidine mouthwash regularly.

Awaiting pictures to comment further .
