low impact exercises?

[royce gracie]

hey i'm new, Fetusaurus Rex sent me from another forum to ask what are some good really low impact exercises that I can do? i recently found out i have some semi serious medical problems, and as a result i had to have some bone removed from my hip and lower back. I am basically only extremely sore, exercises like situps and crunches are sadly too painful to do right now and the medication i've been taking is making me gain weight. Any advice would be helpful and i thank everyone in advance.

This might be a little easier if we had more information about what you can / cant do and exactly what treatment you've had and how long ago etc

You would really need to see a specialist physical therapist to find out what exercises you can and can't do if you have a serious issue with your hip and back. Taking other's advice on the subject would be foolhardy IMO.
