In my experience, the damage in your photo is mechanical and nothing to worry too much about. It will not heal but it won’t get worse either.

I see. Thanks. I was worried about it.

That has been my experience as well- I would be more worried about black or yellowing spots that expand or progress. These look ok.

Thanks. Yes the yellow leaf will fall off eventually it happened before.

I’ve had one spot on mine as long as I can remember. It’s almost been a year and it didn’t seem to have affected her!

Got it! Appreciate the feedback.
