Messed Up Foot. How Do I Exercise?

A few years back I broke my left foot (broke 4 bones). Had 2 surgeries on it and I'll be having another one after the first of the year. Due to the pain, I'm very limited as to what I can do. Sometimes even after just going for a walk, I'm in a lot of pain & my foot is swollen. I've tried physical therapy but it doesn't do anything. I'm hoping after the next surgery, I'll be able to be more active on my foot.
I can't use a treadmill or elliptical. Walking outside is bothersome - depending on the weather & how much I was on my foot during the day at work.
Any suggestions for exercise, since most cardio is out of the question?? Thanks
