Correct. A wound is a type of injury that breaks the skin in some way. Thus, a wound is a more specific type of Injury and the term Injury is much broader (e.g. Can apply to broken bones or burns for example).

Hey,
I'm not completely sure, but i'm gonna try to explain; what is the difference.
Wound is a type of injury in which ''skin'' is punctured(like open wound), cut or torn.
But injury is little bit different. İnjury is the type of damage to a biological system caused by physical harm.

If they are used as nouns, then in general a wound is caused by an object that penetrates the skin, like a knife or bullet. This can also be an injury, although an injury is also a broken bone, torn muscle, sprain, etc.
Only wound can be a verb, and then it means the action of causing a wound.
"Jake wounded Ben when he stabbed him with a knife"
