Ipswich Town are hopeful that midfielder Gavin Williams can avoid another spell on the sidelines after a frustrating run of injuries.
The 26-year-old Wales international netted his first goal of the season to secure a 1-0 win over Hull City at the weekend, but is a doubt for next weekend's clash with Stoke City.
Town's senior physio Dave Williams told the club's official website: "We have scanned his back and his hip area and everything is normal.
"He's had an injection into his pelvic region and we hope that will settle things down.
"Gavin said he was feeling a little sore after the Cardiff game and it's a situation that we will continue to monitor, but we're hopeful that having had the injection, he will be okay for the weekend."
Williams was sidelined for two months earlier this season due to surgery on a hernia.
