Sounds like it. The only way you can really find out it to try a latex condom again, and see if it happens again. If it does, i'd say you probably are having an alergic reaction to it.

herpes would be a painful feeling that would spread throughout the enitre affected area lasting about a month. which looks like open cancer sores starting as a bump, that overtime would scar and heal. I dont think u have herpes at all just an allergic reaction to the condoms.
How long after using a condom does the outbreak occur?
