I would recommend that Emi be evaluated by a vet immediately. Bleeding from the mouth is never normal. It can be caused by a wound, ulceration, internal damage from trauma, bleeding or clotting disorders, among a few other things. I am not sure what could cause the issues in her front legs, but it could be caused by neurologic disease, trauma, or extreme lethargy. If the pain medication was not specifically prescribed for Emi, I would not recommend giving it to her. Some pet prescription pain medications can make intestinal bleeding much worse. There are no safe OTC human pain medications that are safe in cats.
