Brief Answer: May be inflammation of gums Detailed Answer: Hello, This is Dr. Dipti Singh here to answer your query. Actually symptoms of bleeding from gums while brushing seems to be due to inflammation of gingiva (gums) called gingivitis. You have to visit a good dentist to get cleaning of gums as well as start using mouthwash twice daily. Sometimes deficiency of vitamin C also causes gum bleeding; but first you should start with oral cleaning if you does not get relief after that start with vitamin C supplement. Hope it will help you. Thank you. Regards Dr, Dipti Singh
