Billing featured in Denmark U21s 1-1 draw with Poland in the U21 Euro qualifiers on October 12, and scored his maiden international goal against the Poles.
''Philip Billing is incapable of making tonight's important Under-21 international against the Faroe Islands,'' the Danish Football Association tweeted on Tuesday.
"He has therefore returned to his English club, Huddersfield Town - we wish him a good recovery."
