A source has told ESPN that his latest problem, picked up in training, is set to rule him out for a number of weeks. In a statement posted on social media on Tuesday, Shaw said it was his "toughest period."
"It's hurting a lot having to write this as I really thought I had got through my recent struggles and was on a positive path going forward, but unfortunately I've had a small setback," Shaw said.
"I've been through a lot of ups and downs but this has definitely been my toughest period. I'm absolutely devastated and it's extremely tough to come to terms with reality at this moment in time."
Shaw has come in for criticism from some United fans after missing the end of last season with a hamstring injury but returning to play for England in the Euro 2024 final in July.
Another injury picked up after the Euros saw him miss the first three months of the current campaign. The 29-year-old has started just four Premier League games for United in 2024.
"I understand there are going to be people frustrated, angry, disappointed and I understand all of that," Shaw said.
"There is no one feeling that more than me at this moment in time.
"But what I can promise is I will do everything I can to come back better soon to help this club achieve its ambitions this season. Thank you to everyone for the support. It really doesn't go unnoticed and I really do appreciate it."
