I have had bleeding gums since childhood, and they bleed during and after wudu (ablution), even though I use the miswak. How do you advise me?

Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. He also says: I am a young man who has had bleeding gums since I was small. They bleed during wudu, and they also bleed after wudu, even though I always use the miswak. Sometimes they bleed after wudu. How do you advise me, given the situation I described? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
A slight amount of blood, whether from a woman or otherwise, does not harm. If it is a slight amount of blood, it does not harm and does not invalidate the wudu. So you must spit this blood out of your mouth, and your wudu is valid, if Allah wills. However, you must avoid things that cause this blood to come out. Use the miswak, but gently, and be careful not to injure your gums or cause the blood to flow. Use it gently, and also look for a soft miswak that does not injure the mouth or cause the blood to flow. Yes.
