Big toe injury, slight hallux deformity

My foot slipped while climbing up the stairs 3 months ago. Big toe slightly deformed like a bunion. Most of the swelling and pain got reduced in the first month. But there is still some pain and stiffness while loading weight or bending the big toe. X-ray ruled out fracture. MRI says Patchy marrow Edema and joint diffusion in the first MTP. Doctor says it should resolve in 6 months. MRI attached below. Any help or advise would be helpful. Thank you.
