I really think you should see another doctor for another opinion.

This has been going on for a while now, as you said.
I've seen two podiatrists already. First guy looked at x-rays and just said give it more time and it's aligned an looks OK. Second guy looked at x-rays and said it's aligned an it will heal and to focus on the soft tissue and neuropathy.

I might indeed to an orthopedic expert to get another opinion.

It does not hurt if I press on it or bend it, although the joint is obviously inflexible. Sometimes when the swelling comes down enough, I can bend that top bone back and forth without pain too. It only starts to hurt if I walk on it for too long and then I can feel a slight pain with each step.
