He has since been declared fit and added to the squad for the second match of the four-Test series.
"India batter Shreyas Iyer has successfully completed his rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy following his back injury and has been cleared by the medical team," read a statement from the Board of Control for Cricket in India.
India won the series opener by an innings and 132 runs. All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja was named player of the match after taking seven wickets and scoring 70 runs.
The BCCI, meanwhile, have changed the venue for the third Test.
Dharamsala was scheduled to host, but the match has been relocated to Indore.
"Owing to harsh winter conditions in the region of Dharamsala, the outfield lacks sufficient grass density and will need some time to develop fully," said the BCCI.
Ahmedabad has been retained as the venue for the fourth Test.
India's squad for second Test: Rohit Sharma (captain), KL Rahul (vice-captain), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KS Bharat (wicketkeeper), Ishan Kishan (wicketkeeper), Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj, Umesh Yadav, Suryakumar Yadav.
