Norwich City forward Darren Huckerby has been given the go-ahead to resume training following a hip problem.
The 31-year-old had been told earlier in the month that he could require surgery to correct the problem, but after two weeks' rest he has been given the green light to return to training.
"Early indications are that the injection will work," physio Neal Reynolds told the club's official website.
"It won't be perfect. It won't be absolutely 100 per cent but we want to make sure it is more comfortable.
"Surgery is the last resort. I don't think anybody would advise having surgery unless he desperately needed it.
"The surgery would be big surgery and it's not something we would take lightly."
