As detailed in Chapter 34, a comprehensive but ultimately futile effort was made to cure the nephew's bone-cyst. His uncle, a degree-holding doctor, along with other physicians and expert surgeons, tried various treatments. The text explicitly mentions that all native and foreign treatments were attempted, and even surgery was tried without success. When these medical efforts reached their limit, the family also turned to spiritual means, with relatives suggesting the worship of deities. However, the chapter states that even appeals to gods and the family god seemed to provide no help, prompting them to finally hear about and seek out the famous Avaliya, Sai Baba, in Shirdi.
According to the text, what specific medical and non-medical efforts were made to cure the doctor's nephew before his family went to Shirdi?
