What Causes Sores On The Bottom Of Gums?

There are purple veins and yellowness in the back of my mouth. They don't, it just freaks me out. I have sores forming on the bottom of my gums on my lower teeth. They hurt a lot. I don't smoke because I'm only 14, but I'm around it a lot. What could it be?

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The purple veins in the back of the mouth can be a dialated sub lingual veins, nothing to be panic, it is harmless. Regarding the soreness in the gums, it can be because of the gingivitis or peridontitis(gum infection) secondary to the deposits over the teeth. Consult a oral physician and get the teeth cleaned. Mean while do saline gargling or use mouth eash.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
