Hi sir...
Gum pain may be due to
** plaque and calculus deposits(soft and hard deposits)
**periapical and peridontal infection of the tooth
clinical examination is necessary to rule out the cause...
X_ray should be taken to rule out the periapical and periodontal infection
If deposits are there,you need to go for SCALING AND POLISHING
if you have periapical and periodontal infection ,you need to go for ROOT CANAL TREATMENT AND PERIODONTAL ABSCESS DRAINAGE...
Next Steps
kindly consult with dntist to rule out cause and management..

You need to treat the cause of the gum pain. Painkillers will only suppress it. If you have a gum problem consult a good dentist who will recommend whether you need periodontal treatment
