I doubt that's cancer. That's just the color of the area from loose of a tooth. It's not cancer.

its not cancer. may be it has developed bcz of continuous impingemnt of ur lower teeth in that area during chewing, any sort of infection, cheek biting,smoking...better to visit ur dentist if its painful n donot heal in 5-6 weeks. only detailed history of ur condition wd gv a definite diagnosis.
moreover if its cz of sharp cusp hittng that area or cheek biting then it shd heal within 3-4 weeks.

You should visit your dentist as soon as possible for clarification, a good professional dentist checks for signs of oral cancers as part of their examination.

I too agree with the above suggestions that you need to consult your problem with a good dentist, else an infection in gum/teeth can lead to many detrimental health issues, which will difficult to be resolved later on. if ignored now. Also keep a check on your gums, which shouldn't bleed much.
