I have black spots all over the stems of my Areca palm. I did have fungus in the soil, but I changed the soil and now everything seems good there. Can this come from the fungus that I had? enter image description here

These are a fungus/virus/bacteria living inside the plant and are very common with areca palms. They are not a problem and no action is required. More details can be found in my answer here
