Hi.

I wouldn't move the plant, or change anything in its care. I would cut off both affected leaves. Anything that turns yellow will not become green again, so off it goes. The leaf with browning is interesting. The fault starts along a circular line running across the leaf. Anything between that line and the bottom end of the leaf is deteriorating, but everything above the line seems fine. I include a picture to show the area I am describing. I would say that somehow, that leaf got crushed against the pot's rim. The right side seems to have been damaged worse than the left side, but a slight mark exists on the left side, too. It's as if the leaf had been bent. I could be wrong. At any rate, I'd cut off both leaves and leave the rest alone. That's just my opinion and, as I have said, I could be wrong.
