Pain in the gums might be due to some infection in gums. If it is due to deposition of calculus causing bleeding, the problem can be solved by Scaling. But due to such little information and absence of pictures..it is difficult to tell you the exact problem. Consult a dentist nearby for better clinical view

Hello,
If the pain isint severe, its probably because of deposits underneath the gums. I would suggest you to go for cleaning along with detailed clinical checkup to rule out other possibilities.
