The Ivory Coast international striker was carried off in the 83rd minute of Chelsea's 3-0 Barclays Premier League victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
Drogba had already made and scored one of Chelsea's goals before he had to be substituted.
The victory earned Chelsea a new club record of 11 straight wins, better than the one forged by Jose Mourinho, but Ancelotti was more concerned with the condition of his top striker.
"We don't know precisely what happened," said Ancelotti. "It is too early. We will have to wait a few days. We hope it is only cramp.
"We hope soon we will have a precise diagnosis of the situation. It is a calf injury but he felt that he had cramp. If it is cramp, it is good for us.
"We have played without Didier before. He is a very important player for us, a fantastic player. I think we can play well without Didier.
"In the last game against Porto we won without Didier and we have Nicolas Anelka, Salomon Kalou, we have Daniel Sturridge and Fabio Borini.
"Borini is a young player and we are pleased he came on for his first game in the Premier League. We have a very good academy and we want to take a young player into the first team."
