Up your WCs to at least 50% daily untill the problem resolves. Did you have any other fish in this tank before discus or bought some in a meanwhile ....my point is , could this be cross contamination ?
If it's not , then propably a low water quallity is the first one to blame (good bio filtration and waterchanges ).
I Would start with daily large water changes with aged water (the more the better ) and a regular salt 3 to 4 ppm (3-4: grams of salt per liter of water ). I f this does not get them better in a couple of days , I would start with some general antibiotic , such as Nitrofurazone.
P.s. Photo or a video of them would be helpful too .
Good luck .
Thanks guys
