You should see a Dentist asap and brush and floss
Managing gum disease is all about daily plaque control - essentially sound oral hygiene. That means, in most cases, stopping the plaque in your mouth is really in your own hands. Brush every day. Floss every day. Period. Your dentist or oral hygienist may recommend fluoride toothpaste or tartar reduction rinses. Colgate Total is approved by the FDA for helping to prevent advanced gum disease by reducing plaque and tartar.
Dental professionals recommend oral irrigation as a great way to really clean teeth and gums. Oral irrigators get what tooth brushes and floss don't, so plaque and tartar and the resulting advanced gum disease never come back.
Oral irrigators flood the mouth with a jet of water under pressure to flush offending food particles and bacteria from the mouth. From under the gum line where the infection is. It is just like a wound on your arm - you must keep it clean for it to heal. And now there's fresh evidence that advanced gum disease responds well to oral irrigators. Do not use any mouthwash that has alcohol as an ingredient.
The alcohol kills the good bacteria as well as the bad.
--------------------------
You can treat gum disease by brushing your teeth every day. Even when brushing causes the bleeding you should not stop and eventually your gums will recover. You should spend a little extra time brushing/massaging the areas of your gums that are bleeding.
Bleeding gums are usually caused by poor oral hygiene. Regular brushing will help to reduce the chances of infection from decaying food particles in the mouth. Also - regular use of a proprietary mouthwash will be beneficial.

Bleeding gums, blotchy skin, not many teeth.
How can one stop bleeding gums from occurring?
One can use anti-irritation toothpaste, and one can simply train their gums to endure the highest amount of punishment by systematically brushing harder and harder over the course of several months. Bleeding gums can lead to infection so it is important that this step is taken care of. Mouthwash also seems to work well.

"Gum disease" is a non-medical way to describe any disease that affects the gums in your mouth.

Can you get aids by kiss?
No, unless that person has a cut or bleeding gums, and you swallow it. HIV/AIDS is transmitted through the exchange of bodily fluids of one person to another. I would imagine your stomach acid would kill/prevent the virus from infecting you. There is a "condom in a pill" that is FDA approved, Truvada.

What is the purpose of gums?
There is no purpose in chewing gum. It was originally designed as a candy that never left. Although it does help strengthen the jaw muscles, chewing gum has become one of the most favorite time pass for people of any age. It is one of the oldest known candies in the world, but yet, no one really knowns why it is so addicting.
Can you get HIV from snogging an HIV positive?
It is possible to transmit HIV orally by snogging (kissing with tongues and sharing oral liquid). To transmit HIV there needs to be a cross contamination of blood or semen from both people. If one person has had dental treatment (removal of a tooth, cut gums etc) and therefore has an open wound (and possible blood present) and the other person also has bleeding gums, oral problems, etc... then obviously transmission of HIV is possible (but not guaranteed). However, this would then lead to a question I would personally have, which would be: "Why would you/do you want to snog someone with bleeding gums, whether you have HIV or not?" Everyone can suffer from bleeding gums occasionally, but would you seriously choose that moment to snog someone? I dont think I would personally. So to round up the answer, yes it is possible.

Why is internal bleeding bad?
Internal bleeding is not a sign of imminent death, its like a normal bleed but with out a way to get out of your body, like a cut or something similar. A small bruise is an internal bleeding. Large internal bleeding's are bad because its hard to spot one in time to prevent more damage to your body. To "heal" a internal bleeding you must have a small surgery so the doctors can stop the bleeding and clean the blood. If not cleaned and stopped it can get infected or you could bleed to death.
