Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic. Actually sometimes the gums become pale and they look white, till then there is nothing problematic, but as you are mentioning that it is hurting also in that condition it can be possible that it is an abscess which is occurring because of the infection in the adjacent tooth which is also hurting. You should visit a good dentist, for the problem. Hope it will help you.
I would advise you to take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses. Take multivitamin suplements. Maintain good oral hygiene. Avoid hot and spicy foodstuffs.
Take care!
