The 24-year-old was stretchered off during the 2-0 win over Sunderland following a clash with midfielder Didier N'Dong.
Initial reports suggested the Liverpool star could have broken a bone his foot - potentially a metatarsal.
And manager Jurgen Klopp has revealed the Brazilian has in fact injured his ankle, but it is not yet clear how severe the damage is until scan results come back.
"I was not in doubt about the result. I just tried to fix a few things like using space better. It was an intense game for us and a deserved win at the end," Klopp said.
"The excitement is in the detail and that means you have to celebrate before you score a goal and push the team on if possible. It worked out. It is important the crowd know about the importance of their support.
"It [Philippe Coutinho's injury] is an ankle injury but we can't say anymore until we see a scan. Firmino got a knock on the calf as well. That should not be that serious.
"There is a lot to analyse. This was the most defensive team I ever saw in my life. Sunderland always play a defensive style and that is OK. We forced them to be that. It is the most difficult thing in world football to come through but we stayed concentrated, worked for the moment and found a way."
