No idea, since there isn't enough information provided. You can't 'fix' hardware with software, so if you have a 'corrupt' USB port, it's bad, period. And whether or not that shows up in dmesg/system logs is a different story, since if the USB chip goes bad, it won't show up as a device AT ALL, much less give any errors.
What is your actual goal? What are you trying to accomplish?
