Advice for this bone dislocation.

It is almost 2 year ago when I was playing cricket , A ball striked on my left thumb.Unfortunately the thumb was folded when I catch the ball.That's why the ball directly hitted on thumb.Then I felt sharp pain in my thumb.After some hours my thumb's area became much swelling & blueish. After some day I consulted with dr. After checking my x-ray report he told me that my thumb is dislocated and ligaments are injured.and prescribed a bandage and wear atleast 2-3 month.After 4 month it almost get cured. But after 6 month i felt mild pain.Then i consulted another dr. He told me to do CT scan and the report was there was a mild crack in the thumb and the tendon is thicked somthing else. And told to do cold and warm water compress,Other wise it's not cured it need e small surgery. After 1 month it almost cured but last 6 months I am facing a problem,When I wake up in the morning and try to bend my thumb, it makes a cracking sound like 'khotas','khotas'. What can I do now?xray attached here👇
