Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

Read your query.

The bleeding could be because of the gingival inflammation or due to a tear in the gums .

*I would advice you to put firm pressure on it with a sterile gauge piece.

*Avoid gargling vigorously.

*If you have a anesthetic ointment you can apply on it.

*If still not controlled ,visit a emergency or a dentist available and get it treated there.

*Visit your local dentist and rule out the cause and get the needed treatment .

Thanks and regards.
