Hello, Thanks for your query. Swollen gums usually occur due to-gingivitis. I would advice you to get a thorough scaling done. Maintain oral hygiene well. Avoid tobacco or pan chewing. Vitamin b complex ,c as well as iron supplements has to be ingested. Use chlorhexidine mouthrinses to gargle. I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
