there are various reasons for redness in gums and soreness,,, e.g. tooth bite while chewing, vit. B complex/ vit. C deficiency, local infection etc. initially u should maintain oral hygine regularly and take vitamine B complex/ vit. C tablets for 5 to 6 days,,,,,, if still problem persist u should consult ENT surgon for that,,,,,
