Any time you stretch or pull the skin around sutures, it tends to open the wound and impede healing. Likewise, if you pull hard enough to pull the sutures out, a more serious wound occurs in that it can't be re-sutured. If you can walk with zero stress on the wound and the sutures, you can do it now. But please do be very careful -- feet are wonderful things in that they handle an amazing amount of stress, but unfortunately it's hard to tell what's stretching what. My advice would be stay off the foot as much as possible until the wound is closed and the sutures removed.
