The vagina is remarkable for its self-cleaning properties.
A small cut should heal easily, unless you have a condition that makes it difficult for your skin to rebound from cuts or scrapes.
If your boyfriend's fingers were dirty when he cut you, there is a chance you could get an infection. While you have this tear, you are more likely to get a sexually transmitted infection during unprotected sex.
As to what you can do, you just need to sit back and let nature take its course. Be gentle with the area and avoid rough fingering until you're healed.
