Exercising with a useless leg

This weekend I recently contracted an infection in my leg which has made it swell to around 5 times it usual size! It's also quite difficult to walk on as it's very stiff.

Are there any exercises that I can do without putting to much trauma on my leg, I should manage to hobble to the gym.

Thanks

    I know that's the sensible idea, I'm just a bit miffed as I only started my new gym on Firday and I have the whole week off work and was looking forward to working out :(

    That is rubbish timing! But I agree rest up and take care of yourself
