Is there anything wrong with my Rubber Tree plant?

Hi, I have an Indian Rubber Fig plant of the Ruby/Tricolour variety and have had it for about 6 weeks. It seems relatively healthy and has recently produced a new leaf. However at the bottom of the stem there are some veiny brown lines that are growing upwards and two of the bottom most leaves have a dark brown dry patch on the edge. Is this a sign of infection or over/under watering?
Thanks

Most often, brown edges indicate too little water. Here is care information that should help:
