One story about Schumann holds that in an attempt to make his fingers longer and hence enable him to play the piano better he made a finger stretcher (a little like a medieval 'rack'). After over using it one day, he damaged all of the fingers and was unable to play properly again.
Whether this is true or not? who knows.
