Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

According to your clinical symptoms i suppose that you are suffering from gingivitis.
I would suggest you to take tab vitcofol OD for 30 days and look for the changes.
Take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses.
Go for complete mouth scaling and polishing.
Drink plenty of water and keep yourself hydrated.

Take care!
