Billy Clarke spent the night in hospital after suffering a dislocated elbow in the reserves' defeat at Portsmouth and is likely to be out for around six weeks.
The 17-year-old striker, who made his full debut in the 2-2 draw with QPR on Saturday, had a minor operation to put the joint back in place and is now on his way back to Ipswich with Academy Manager Bryan Klug, who stayed down on the south coast with Billy.
"We will know more when Billy is back with us but he's had the elbow put back into place under anaesthetic," Town physio Dave Williams told the Club website.
"It was dislocated and at the moment we are looking at him being our for six weeks but we will have a better judgment on that when we have had a look at our end.
