What Is Wrong With Some Of My Blueberry Canes?

A couple of my blueberry bushes (next to each other) have a few canes that look diseased. They are abnormally colored and spotted (as in pictures). After fruiting season began last summer, I noticed some canes on these plants had something like webbing and tiny bugs all over the cane and leaves. I’m not sure if this is related. Does my plant have a disease? Should I cut out these canes, even if they are loaded with blossoms? Thank you for your time!

I would treat it for the insects. Since you mention webbing, I think of mites, but they are usually too small to see, so you may have two kinds of bugs. It could be aphids or even scale.
