Coral is sick - trying to Id issue

I have been out of the hobby for a while, and had a tank setup for a couple months. One of my corals is not looking good, not sure what is going on.

I sat in front of this for hours and these white spots don’t move. They look fleshy and they disappear into the coral when it extends.

I assume the coral is on its last legs it’s in quarantine.

Salinity is 1.025
Temp 77
Alkalinity is stable

MNo no2 very small trace no3.

Any chance you've dropped undissolved salt or some other mineral on it?

No, don’t think so, maybe it’s possible. It’s by the glass.

A couple days later it looks better. There is also a little nub on the side- looks like a baby
