Hi,
Stitches cannot be given in infected wound. So you need to wait till healing is complete. Such tears mostly heal on their own after complete healing of infection. Meet you doctor after healing and he will advise according to your physical state.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
