White gums indicates an infection. The white cells buildup until the color changes and the gums should also be harder than usual. The swollen tongue would also be a side affect of the infection.

Gums can become swollen due to a number of reasons, the most common if gingivitis (a mild form of periodontal disease), can also become swollen due to drugs/medications in your system, or trauma.
The white colour, is normally associated with blanching, which is when there is pressure on an area, it contricts blood flow, therefore looking colour.
