Is my hand infected?

I had a blister on my hand, it popped, and I was using the hand a lot for work. There is a large sore on my hand now, and the area around it is swollen and basically the whole hand really hurts. Does this mean that I have some sort of infection?

Maybe you should put some antiseptic cream on it, and a dressing, and see a doctor ASAP.
