Mri may miss small compression near spinal canal where nerve root arises. But it may be possible that it has a differnt cause like vitamin deficiency or other common causes of burning feet like alcoholism or diabetes or obesity. I advise my patients to take vitamin supplements along with nerve tonics like pregabalin and lumbar physiotherapy for back pain
