A thorough answer to this would require detailed knowledge of what is causing your pain, what the goal of the exercise is, how old you are, what kind of physical shape you are in already, what your physical demands of daily life amount to, etc.
For example (Assuming that your pain is not caused by fracture, tumor, infection, or recent trauma):
1) It is possible that once you start to exercise your pain severity will diminish. Thus, it may just be a matter of getting active despite the pain, and it will reduce in time.
2) You may need to use some form of pain control to get started (eg: manipulation, massage, drugs, etc). Again, once you start becoming more active the pain levels will decrease and you will not require the pain control any more.
3) There may be specific exercises or exercise routines that you could perform that would not cause you pain, but allow you to remain active.
If your pain is caused by fracture, tumor, infection, or recent trauma, then there will be specific types of exercise, under specific conditions (drugs, casting, etc), and perhaps under specific supervision (eg: physiotherapist) that you will have to conform to.
In other words, and as mentioned earlier, there are many variable to consider when answering this question. You best option is to go see a qualified health care professional to get advice specific to your needs. I would recommend a doctor of chiropractic, doctor of physiatry or doctor of osteopathy, unless you are already under the care of another specialist for your specific situation (eg: oncologist).
