Default Repeated Cold Exposure and Nerve Damage?

So I understand acute frostbite can cause nerve damage but can a distal appendage repeatedly exposed to the cold get nerve damage?

My symptoms started in February during a rather cold winter. I spent many times outdoors in Crocs sandals during sub 40 degree temps. My core was dressed warm but unfortunately I didn't take care of my feet. To be 100% transparent I'm a competitive archer and practice outside almost daily. I was shooting a lot during this time.

I wonder if the cause of my PN symptoms are from repeated exposure to the cold. I obviously didn't experience frostbite but maybe I suffered some nerve damage?

Sorry mom I'll wear socks next time [emoji3]
