It appears that your gingiva is inflamed, thus the bleeding. Have you seen a dentist for a professional cleaning in the past six months? If not, make an appointment. If you have built up calculus th brushing isn't really going to help until that calculus is removed.

You are dealing with the physical results of oral hygiene neglect, not cancer. Improper oral hygiene coupled with lack of regular professional care can cause irritating tarter build-up, gum inflammation/infection, bleeding gums, etc. You need professional cleaning and instructions on proper Aral health care. Please see General Dentist as soon as possible to get back on the right track.
