The 29-year-old was last seen in action in the Hong Kong Open where she had to face a first-round exit from the tournament after losing to China's Cai Yan Yan 13-21, 20-22.
World number nine Nehwal has had a troubled run in this year as she has now faced exits from a tournament in the first round five times.
Earlier this year, Cai Yan Yan had knocked out Nehwal in the first round of the China Open.
