White dot appeared on clownfish face

[Asian Hurricane]

Hi, I just reintroduced my clownfish to my display tank after a 3 month QT period. After a day he developed a sort of white fuzzy patch on his white band. Today I noticed a single white dot on his face. Since the DT was fallow for 3 months, and he was in QT for 3 months I am wondering if this is just stress or disease related? If so what should my next steps be? He is behaving pretty normally.

I have a suspicion it’s a piece of sand and not uncommon to stick to face and body
Try to net or blow a turkey baster burst towards face and see if it falls off

I think the white spot is inconsequential but that patch on the white band looks odd....has it grown in size?
When the fish was isolated, did you treat with anything? Did you have any difficulty catching it when you moved it over?

It looks like the white spot is where a nostril would be?

The patch on the white band has not grown in size, it did look fuzzy a day ago but it looks smooth now. The fish was treated with copper about 2 months ago as well as prazi, but it was in normal water for about 2 months. There was nothing that stood out to me as unusual when catching it, it swam as I would have expected.

Well, I’m not seeing anything treatable here, I was just worried that the patch was getting larger. Just keep a close eye on it I think.
