There are a lot of things it could be. How long has it been giving you these symptoms? Did you scratch it? Did you change your dental hygiene products recently? Did you recently floss? Were you hit in the mouth? It could be something so simple as gingivitis or something more complex like candidiasis (an oral yeast infection) or something called ANUG. I suggest you see a dental professional ASAP if it doesn't go away soon.
