Hi,
Thank you for posting your question here, I will try to answer it to the best of my abilities.
Yes, there is without a doubt an infection and that is the reason there is pus coming out. I recommend you see a doctor as soon as possible so that he/she can drain all the pus out and put a proper dressing on the wound, he may prescribe you with some antibiotics as well.
I hope this answered your question.
