Head appeared to be in some discomfort after playing a shot through the offside in his third-innings 17 at the Gabba.
Television replays showed the 30-year-old stretching out his leg after he moved slowly to the non-striker's end.
Head did not take to the field after Australia declared on the final day, before rain ended the Test 13 balls into India's second innings.
Australian team staff moved quickly to dismiss any talk of the left-hander being in doubt for Melbourne, with officials brushing the issue off as tightness.
"It's been a big couple of weeks, a bit sore," Head said.
"But I will be fine."

Captain Pat Cummins also played down any concerns over the injury after the match.
"Trav will be fine, it's a tight quad, he will be fine," Cummins said.
Head has carried Australia's batting on his shoulders this series with 409 runs at an average of 81.2.
His 140 in Adelaide set up the 10-wicket win and he backed that up with a blistering 152 at the Gabba to put the hosts in an impregnable position.
The South Australian has been player of the match in both of those Tests.
Even in the 295-run loss in Perth he was the best of the Australians with a second innings 89.
Australia's batters have mostly been dominated by India spearhead Jasprit Bumrah in this series, but Head has found a counter-punching style to not only survive but prosper against the great fast bowler.
"This week was completely different to last week," Head said.
"I feel like I am summing up the conditions well, my awareness is good. I'm happy with how I am batting at the moment."
