What can i do about gum bleeding around one tooth?

Brush and floss: Bleeding is a danger sign. If i shook your hand and it started to ooze blood, wouldn't you be worried? Gums should not bleed. The bleeding is an indicator of a more serious problem. Perhaps conscientious brushing and flossing, twice a day will help. Remember that if one area is inflamed, perhaps others are too. Visit your dentist.

Go to dentist...: It may be something simple about this tooth...It may be decay, a faulty filling or crown or you may have a pocket. You may also have something stuck below your gums too. Go to your dentist and with an exam and x-ray you problem should be solved.
