: anything else I should do?

I wouldn't worry about the roots. You would want this area to be a little more dry if possible, but if this isn't possible, I wouldn't worry about it too much. I'd worry more about possible stem damage, or bruises on the stem that may come on later. Many times when they lean like that, a car has pushed it over, but not hit hard enough to snap the stem off.
