Size of tank in gallons or litres.
How many fish and which type.
Water stats in ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and ph.

Whitespot looks like the fish has been sprinkled in salt.
The spots will be the size of a grain of salt so it does sound like whiteshot.

White dusting on fish can be velvet.
Are the fish flicking and rubbing.

Are we talking about just two spots between the eyes? If so, have a close look and make shure it isn't the sensory vents that you are observing Sorry if this seems daft, but you'd be supprised at how many times people mistake the sensory vents on Discus for an ailment. The most common one people think they are is HITH, but I have know people to mistake it for Whitespot/ICH. If they are sensory vents, they will be two obvious ones and 6 not so obvious in total, both sides of the snout counted ICH will spread across the whole fishes body, not just the snout

With it being Discus, it could also be missing scales after a fight... I hope you have more than two Discus in there if you are planning to keep them long-term, or that you have a breeding pair and will be removing the other fish shortly, or finally that more Discus are in the pipe-line...

All the best
