Gum soreness could be due to many things and without enough information I cannot tell you what may be causing what you have. It could be gingivitis due to need for better oral care or due to viral infection or it could be due to nutritional deficiencies. The important thing to increase chances of healing is frequent cleansing with mouth wash and careful brushing after each meal, if you smoke stop.
