Whats this on my dog?

Super weird, noticed it today on his right foreleg just above the elbow joint. Feels like there's something underneath, and had this chunky white protrusion. Can't find an exact match via Google. Expecting some sort of cyst or maybe a blocked gland?

Have an appointment for this afternoon. Will update when I know!

Good news, just a benign growth. Vet isn't concerned. Said some fancy medical terms and said it's nothing to worry about in the short term, just keep an eye on it monthly to see if it's growing.

Thanks everyone!

Thanks for the update OP! Although part of me always welcomes a botfly extraction video, Im glad it's not that for your doggo.
