"These things happen in football, though. I'd much rather be out there involved in incidents like that than still be back in the treatment room."
With things tight at the bottom, Scharner hopes to continue his push towards a return to first team with an appearance against Charlton in a crucial six-pointer for both sides.
Scharner said: "I will be doing all I can over the next week to push for a place because I feel really good now, 100 per cent back to full fitness.
"I feel so much enthusiasm again after so long out.
"Playing matches makes all the difference. You can train as hard as you like, run and run, work in the gym, but you just can't replace the adrenaline of competition.
"Of course, reserve matches are not quite as high a level of energy as in the first team, but it is definitely a step up from the training ground."
