My baby is 1.6 years old. Last week, he had fever, cold, and cough. Now, the fever has subsided and he only coughs occasionally, but I have noticed that he is more cranky than usual and sleeps a lot. Is this normal post-viral behavior, or should I be concerned about his activity level? I am a bit worried. I have attached his blood report for your review.

After fever, some children may feel weak or sleep more. If appetite is poor or activity is low, get a pediatric follow-up. Blood tests like CBC and CRP can help rule out lingering infection.
