It is not common to have gum inflammation from Invisalign. Make sure there are no rough edges impinging on the gum tissue, and if so, get the aligners adjusted. It may take some time for your gums to adjust if you just began Invisalign treatment. If you have further concerns you should get evaluated by your orthodontist.
Gum inflammation due to Invisalign can be due to unfit trays and the appliance, also if you have not taken care of oral hygiene, possibly you need to see your dentist as soon as possible, for the time being rinsing with warm salt water or with 30% diluted 3% hydrogen peroxide and salt may help till you do see your dentist as soon as possible!

Iā€™m sorry I would have to see you how bad your problem is getting a Sonicare and flossing is a good start you should probably contact your doctor who did the Invisalign for you.
See your Invisalign provider. You may need a dental cleaning. Certainly need a periodontal evaluation. Thank you.
