Warning signs of a mild stroke include biting the tongue

Frequent tongue biting is usually not a sign of stroke. The main warning signs of stroke are transient ischemic attacks (TIAs). Some patients may experience episodic slurred speech or facial drooping, while others may have temporary numbness or weakness in limbs, blurred vision, and other clinical manifestations. Additional symptoms include episodic dizziness and sudden falls. These symptoms typically last from several minutes to a few hours before resolving on their own and are more commonly seen in middle-aged and elderly individuals. It is essential to seek medical attention promptly and receive timely intervention.
