Resenlty my USB ports are not working on LEDE. So I installed stock ROM

I am asking is my USB port permanently dead?

Help us understand the problem -- what doesn't work under OpenWrt and does it also not work under OEM firmware?

Yes, USB port not worink on Stock as well as on LEDE.

I think USB is dead, I dont know how.
