According to Chapter 34, what medical and non-medical interventions were attempted for the doctor's nephew before the family sought Sai Baba's help?

As detailed in Chapter 34, the nephew of the Malegaon doctor suffered from a severe bone-cyst that resisted all treatments. The text explicitly states that numerous remedies were exhausted. His uncle, being a physician himself, along with his expert and intelligent surgeon friends, tried various treatments but felt helpless. The chapter mentions that all native and foreign treatments were tried, and even surgery was attempted, but nothing succeeded. After these medical efforts failed, relatives suggested worshipping deities. However, the text notes that even gods and the family god seemed unable to help, which ultimately led them to hear about and seek the help of the famous saint in Shirdi.
