Hello,

Read your query, as you have history of fever and body ache this bleeding and swollen gums can be due to Viral stomatitis or due to poor oral hygiene, deposition of plaque and calculus at sungingival areas of gums , or if you are using gum irritants such as tobacco containing products.
Dont be worried so much you can consult with your dentist and go for oral examination , in meantime you can apply ointment like Acivir and take tablet Acivir with you local doctor , take Electrol and proper nutritious diet, take proper rest .

Hope this will help you.
Regards,
