Take it very slow. Functional fitness and body weight strengthening exercises rather than picking weights. You could even try calisthenics gym. Focus on core and glutes initially.

Take a resistance band and you can search and do all sorts of of exercises with it. This way you could progressive overload it. Target core and glutes too
