Dd2 (8) fell off a balancing toy yesterday evening(the ikea moon thing, for those of you in the know ) courtesy of ds, who had rather unhelpfully kicked it .
She fell back against a bedframe and banged her head hard. She's had a pretty bad headache since and says her 'brain feels like wool'(?) but hasn't been sick and did feel well enough to come downstairs and watch telly this morning .
Should I make her lie down? And how long does this take?

I'd get it checked up, or ring NHS, just to be on the safe side -- though she's prob fine.
