Team management stated the 27-year-old felt some "soreness" and was to take time on the sidelines for further assessment "in the coming hours".
The concluding match in this Ashes battle beginning on 4 January starts this coming Sunday.
The English side has been without key quicks one seamer due to knee trouble and Jofra Archer to a side strain on this Ashes tour.
Matthew Fisher was brought into the squad as cover for Wood.

He was left out of the third Test, then recalled for the Boxing Day match as Archer's replacement.
Atkinson showed better form in Melbourne, bagging two scalps in Australia's first innings, and scoring 28 runs while batting as one of just three English batsmen who passed ten runs.
After bowling one over late on the first day, he came back the next day and had nightwatchman edging to the keeper.
Unfortunately, towards the conclusion of the fifth over, he delivered a change of pace to Travis Head and suddenly grabbed his left hamstring.
