Hard to say. Discus will sometimes rub "flash" or scratch against something if they have an exterior irritant. Clean water is your first defense.

This can be caused by skin flukes but... If it only does it once in a while it may not be. Either way keep an eye on it and keep the water clean. Don T.

Stay on top of your water quality and you should have no problems. If it continues or becomes more frequent, you may have use a different approach.
