It’s acknowledged as relatively common but I think one of the issues is what is recorded as ‘damaged’. I can fasten buttons, write, type. I can walk and more recently stand on my toes. I am effectively not limited by my PN. I won’t run because it’s too uncertain and I occasionally get irked that I either feel that I am walking on a mattress or on ridged sand when I am walking on a perfectly flat surface. But statistically I agree that I am not damaged. But if wearing socks and mittens will stop others having this side effect, go for it!
