Yeah that has happened to me, I would call it injury not so much nerve damage. Should heal up. Try this – have a luthier/guitar tech do a set up on your guitar to set the action low and put 10’s on. This will make fretting easier on the finger tips because less pressure will be required. A more extreme idea would be to get yourself an electric guitar, put 9’s on it with low action – this will be the easiest yet. Use the electric off and on to give the finger tips some rest from (I imagine) your glorious Martin guitar with 12’s.
