What Could Have Caused Sore Gums And Subsequent Whiteness And Bleeding In The Area?

My gums were sore for about a day or two on one side of my mouth. Now the soreness is gone but in the spot where it really hurt it felt like something was growing out of my gums. I pulled it out and it was like a small cluster of gunk but the spot it came from looks white and is bleeding now. Whats going on?
