Hello Phillip,
We had another pet owner ask a similar question which you can read about here:

One of our pros identifies the growth as a histiocytoma,
And you can read more about what that is here:

Hi, Neat post. Thank you!
Most histiocytoma will shrink on their own. Simply wait a few months but if it doesn’t you will need to have it removed.
Is histiocytoma develops on kittens too?Horrible.
What are the early signs of histiocytoma for dogs?
My dog has the samething,but i desided to squeeze it and something came out like a worm so i kept squeezing it and something that looks almost like a sack came out and now his foot is okay,but i keep looking for anything else because he is very important to me 🙂
