Default Does radial sensory neuropathy affects you when you get older?

If someone was involved in an accident and there was nerve damage. EMG concluded an abnormal study and right serve radial sensory neuropathy with between 70 to 90 percent sensory axon loss, no motor involvement. The person has pain, numbness, sensitive to touch, heat such as steam from cooking affect the hand/wrist(where the nerve damage is), becomes difficult using a computer after a few hours, difficult doing dishes and other chores. Could this affect a young person when they get older or will they be fine? If so what kind of problems can they face. The person is only in their 20's. The doctor who did they EMG say it is most likely permanent but the doctor who did the surgery said it should improve within time. What is the possibility of this affecting the person when they get older?

TY
