Want to run but can't

Last week I hurt the bridge of my left foot whilst out running and although I had only completed week 2 run 2 I have found I am missing running and desperate to get back into it. I still can't walk well on this foot since hurting it last week but I am putting off going to the doctors as I don't think it is bad enough to go but I also daren't run on it in case I do more damage. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Is it actually improving? I think people would suggest you rest it from running (as you are) and do get it checked out, we can't diagnose! Hope you can get back to running, it will still be here when you are healed :)
