Baby rubber plant sick

10 years ago

I have a baby rubber plant that was outgrowing it's pot so I repotted it. About 2 weeks later I noticed there's brown spots/blotches on some of the leaves and a few of them have fallen off. The plant has always been healthy and nothing has changed other than being repotted. The brown is spreading to other leaves now too, but the bottom of them are just green. The brown parts are slightly indented as well. Anyone know what it is or what I can do?

Theres a couple tiny leaves just starting to open. I'll keep checking them and hopefully they stay green and healthy. I also posted in the houseplants forum but wasn't getting any help. Thanks!!
