I wanted to know realistically if there was any danger of suffering permanent damage from getting an MRI. I looked up ‘MRI side effects’, and ‘MRI injuries’, then read from the following two sites below.

I’m supposed to be getting an MRI done in a hospital on my pelvis and spine in two different sessions, the first being in a little over a week. I’m just too scared to do it now; I’m trying to evaluate the risk of having the MRI, with the actual possibility that there could be anything wrong with me.
I was pushed forward on a rowing machine back in late March and felt two crackles to the left of my lower back. I’m thinking the worst that could have happened is that I’ve got a slight subluxation or malalignment of my sacroiliac joint that perhaps the MRI wouldn’t show.
This is because I’m not experiencing any physical symptoms.
