It can probably be root rot have you checked?
0개 좋아요i checked the roots they seem fine for now but the soil is having difficulty drying out
0개 좋아요What soil mix are you using for it?
0개 좋아요regular potting mix. i was wondering if i should downsize the pot size it keeps dropping leaves and mix in a tropical mix. but when i checked the root system is still seems ok
0개 좋아요Yeah! I would go an inch or 2 smaller and use a chunkier mix. I recommend Molly's Aroid Mix. I use it for all my tropicals and they love it!

0개 좋아요Not an aroid expert and I can’t really tell the real texture of it from the photos but look up edema/corky growths. (If it spreads, it’s likely not edema and is infectious, so your description of your previous incidence gives me pause.) solution would be repot in airier soil mix, and the diagnosis would be consistent with the lingering wetness of the soil.
