The former Toon midfielder suffered a double fracture at Bristol Rovers last month, just his second game for West Ham since his £6million move from Newcastle.
Dyer Stays As 'Positive' As Ever During Rehab
Dyer: "I've been trying to stay as positive as I can.
"The physios and the specialist were really pleased with how the operation went and said there is no reason why I shouldn't make a full recovery.
"I am just focusing on that for now and getting some rest before I hopefully beginning my rehab and treatment some time next week.
"They don't really give exact time scales with this type of injury because some people heal a lot quicker than others and there can be complications when you have screws put in so you just have to play it by ear really, but as I said I am staying positive and just focusing on being back and playing for West Ham sooner rather than later.
"As I said before, the doctors were delighted with how the operation went and if there are any consolations to this, they did explain to me that the best place to break your leg is in the middle of the shin because there are usually more complications when it is closer to the ankle, like what happened to Dean Ashton, but my break has happened in a much safer place.
"If you look at a player like Djibril Cisse, who used to play for Liverpool, he had exactly the same injury as me and he has obviously come back and made a full recovery, which holds me in good stead as I plan to do exactly the same and be back playing for West Ham and England."
