I just noticed this on one of my plants. Any idea what it is and what I can do to treat it?

I really can't see much from your picture, but swirl marks usually mean leaf miners. They are common, but I've never seen them attack a plant enough to harm it. Nothing to worry about on one leaf.

Thanks TZ. Your right about the damage being minimal, it was only on a couple leaves and didn't seem to do much other than leave marks. Being curious, I just wanted to know what was doing it and now I know.
