Could The Pus From The Wound On The Foot Be Due To Infection?

Hello, I cut the sole of my right foot on an underwater log while canoeing a couple weeks back and the soreness has become worse and it seems to still be leaking puss into my sock when during work. It s become very hard for me to walk on it without pain. Would this be infected or just sore from the wound?
