Rosicky had a problem with his Achilles while Cech went to hospital as a precautionary measure after experiencing some shoulder pain following Tuesday's Group A game.
He said he got hit in the same spot where he had experienced pain at the end of his club season with Arsenal but was happy the scan showed no damage to the tendon.
"I played three matches with this at the end of the season but it has not been as painful as it is now," Rosicky said in an interview on Czech television.
"I can barely stand on the foot but I am not giving up. If it is at least a little possible, I will play."
Krejci said: "There was no bruise so I hope he will be okay."
"Cech felt some pain in his shoulder. It should be nothing serious," he added ahead of the Czechs final group game against co-hosts Poland on Saturday in Wroclaw.
"There is a good chance that with the help of intensive treatment we would get them both ready to play," he said, adding there was a 75 percent chance they would be fit.
