Painless vaccine is a wrong term. There can be fever after every vaccine although chance with acellular pertussis ("painless vaccine") is less. Continuous fever is not common. Please visit a pediatrician for check up. You can give saline nasal drops for cold.

There is fever even after giving painless vaccine , just that the fever is not high grade with painless vaccine, there is less irritability and less risk for convulsion with painless vaccine.
You need to consult with a pediatrician in person if your child is lethargic and not having feed properly.Thank you
