Probably neither: If you had an infection, you would be experiencing severe pain, fever and vaginal drainage. It is also unlikely that your are pregnant due to the obstructive nature of the tampon.

Yes: If you think you may be pregnant you should wait until you have missed a period and then get a home test kit and use it on a first morning voided urine. If you think you are infected because of discharge, pain, fever, or anything else go and see a doctor asap. Hopefully the tampon is now out. If not, go and see a doctor. Good luck.
