Welcome to the forum. Thanks for your question. Proper condom use includes holding onto it during withdrawal so the penis doesn't pull out and leave the condom behind. However it's a minor detail. When such slippage happens protection usually is considered complete since there is little or no contact with the partner's genital fluids. The important part of condom protection is that the head of hte penis and urethral opening are covered. Even with proper use there usually is some contact of fluids with the skin above the condom. This poses little risk for STDs and none for HIV. A pimple at the base of the penis doesn't significantly increase the already very low risk. Also your symptoms are not typical for a new HIV infection which usually does not cause cough or pain in the groin neck or joints. And as you suggest yourself acute HIV usually causes fever. Since you're worried have an HIV test. If this is your only possible exposure you can expect a negative result. I hope this has been helpful. Best wishes
