The club’s top scorer was injured in the first half of the 1-1 draw against Manchester United on 27 December.
Howe confirmed the news after Newcastle, who are 19th in the Premier League, were beaten 1-0 at home by Cambridge in the FA Cup on Saturday.
Newcastle had 23 shots, nine on target, against Cambridge who are 16th in League One, but failed to score.
