If you keep your Discus at the desirable temperature of 28oC or higher then whitespot can never be a problem as the whitespot parasite cannot survive at those temps.........could simply be small cysts and probably nothing to worry about...........a picture always helps 8-)

If you keep your discus at a temperature of around about 32 degrees for a week you should completely eradicate the ICH parasite.
