Hello,

Read your query, understand your concern dont be worried so much swollen gum can be due to deposition of food debris in subgingival areas of gums or due to if drug you are taking , gingival enlargement is drug induced also .
For this you should consult periodontist and go for subgingival scaling and currettage, take proper course of antibiotics like Doxcycline if needed by consulting your dentist.
Take proper nutritious healthy diet and green leafy vegetables , you can take vitamin c with folic acid supplements.
Do luke warm saline gargle two - three times a day.

Hope it will help you.
If you have further query I will be happy to help.

Regards,
