This sounds like it could be a mild fungal infection. I would suggest using a fungicide on the upper portions of the shrub. This article will help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/garden-how-to/info/using-fungicides-in-garden.htm [1]
I would also treat the soil with a handful of DOLOMITIC LIME and a teaspoon of WETTABLE SULFUR once or twice each year. This will help to prevent the issue in the future.
