Unless you are confident with a soldering Iron and are competent enough to take things apart and put them back together the just buy a new one. Otherwise take the case apart until you can see which type of mounting the USB port uses. There are a few online retailers that stock the various types of PCB mounted USB sockets. Unsolder the old one and Fit the new. It sounds easy in theory but in reality it can be time consuming and difficult. The hardest part is putting it all back together again. You will also need a good quality soldering iron, the cheap ones are useless for PCB soldering.
