Any idea what’s causing these red spots on the leaves of my fiddle leaf fig?

It’s edema. Caused when the cells in the leaf burst from too much water in them. It’s normal to have some, and it usually fades over time. But that much I would call a sign of overwatering.

I recently got it from a big box store and I repotted it maybe a week ago into a well draining soil so hopefully that will resolve the issue!
