Please help; what is wrong with it? I got it with some of these weird brown spots thinking they would go away and they’ve just gotten worse.

It looks like how mine did when I had thrips ☹️ I couldn’t even see them on my syngonium, only on my adansonii

Question. I brought a plant home with thrips from the grocery store. Treated it with bonide. I don’t see any bugs. Are you saying they could still be in the leaves? I seriously have ptsd. Treated all my plants put out sticky traps 🥹

I’m sorry I just saw the notification for your comment! Yes from what I understand they get in the plant. But if you treated it with bonide, the plant takes that in with water, and it makes the plant toxic to pests (as well as people and pets, so you don’t want to use it for anything you plan on eating).  
Sticky traps are more for gnats, I’m not sure how effective they are for thrips.

Does that container have drainage? It looks like the soil is very wet.

I watered it recently. Basically the entire bottom is drainage.
