The Germany international was left in agony after being felled by Charlie Mulgrew in the dying seconds of his country's Euro 2016 qualifier with Scotland on Sunday and it was initially feared that the attacker had aggravated the same ankle problem that ruled him out of this summer's World Cup.
However, subsequent scans have revealed only strained ligaments, meaning Reus will be able to return to action in a month.
"We just have to work now and score without him."
Dortmund's hopes of doing just that appeared to have been jeopardised by a hip injury suffered by striker Ciro Immobile during Italy's 2-0 win over Norway.
However, even though the club's star summer signing was taken from the field on a stretcher, Azzurri team doctor Enrico Castellacci insisted that Immobile had already made a rapid recovery from the blow.
"Immobile suffered a bruised hip and, at first, he could barely move," he told Rai Sport.
"But after a few minutes he was already doing much better."
Dortmund return to Bundesliga action against Freiburg on Saturday before kicking off their Champions League campaign with a meeting with Arsenal at Signal Iduna Park on September 16.
