Hello,
Cannot say in your particular case, but generally, there is either something structurally wrong that an MRI would show or there is not.
The lack of a structural problem is a more common situation. The nerve in the area gets inflamed. Sometimes it is temporary, sometimes the nerve just breaks. A course of steroids is generally tried.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
