    I'm afraid you have fungus problems. These two articles on basil and oregano problems describe what's going on and what can be done:

    Unfortunately, without seeing photos, it would be hard to say what happened. Likely, overwatering is the cause. Using contaminated soils can be an issue, as well, as reusing such soils.

    It is important to ensure that the soil dries out, at least, down to about 1/3 of the container, completely. Once it is dry, the plant can be watered again. Be sure that the container allows all extra water to flow from the container, freely.

    Unfortunately, there are so many factors that can go wrong, indoors. This article will help you to get started, though:
