It looks like what could have been a new head that died and is no longer an issue, anything else you're seeing that we aren't?
Yess i mean that i am just worried im losing flesh and not seeing it

I'm seeing tissue rescission on all but one head, the worst one being that one pods pointed out. You should see some flesh extending down like you see on the one next to that worst one.

/Actually it looks like the recession is all the way from the white up.

From what I can see it doesn't look like recently lost flesh as the split and calcification seam old and something you would have noticed. If it was recent If everything is opening nicely I'd leave it be as all seams well.

Look where the stalks meet the head. There’s a bubble of pinkish flesh on one stalk and the rest have recessed and gone white. The coral is not happy and to find out why we need to know more about your tank.
I agree let's explore everything, full list of parameters wouldn't hurt.

It can absolutely recover that area, what are your parameters? Have they been stable? It looks happy and the other corals look good too as far as I can tell.

/I can't see their bases however.
