I recently noticed some weird discolored specks in my images, and I thought it was a lens issue, so I tried cleaning the lens. The specks got a tiny bit smaller, but unfortunately still there.
I took two pictures of a wall (apologies for awful quality), before and after the cleaning.
Before (zoomed way in):
After (zoomed way in, same location):
I'm pretty new to photography, so I didn't find anything dust related. I thought it could be sensor damage, but I've never taken direct images of the sun and I don't take outdoor pictures much either.
How can I fix this? Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Try another lens? It looks like a hot pixel (to some extent a normal thing) or possibly a problem with the lens coating / cleanliness. A different lens completely is the best way to say lens vs camera.

I'm not convinced these are hot pixels. If your camera has an automatic sensor cleaning routine, run it a few times and then try your test again. Do the spots move? What happens when you use a wider aperture (using the same ISO and shifting the shutter time)? What happens when you use a narrower aperture?

Looks like a hot pixel (the white pixel in the lower half of the picture is more conspicuous than the blue pixel in the upper half and will likely be green before demosaicing). Hot pixels tend to become more apparent with longer exposures. Basically a sensor deficiency, either temporarily or permanent.
thanks! what causes the sensor deficiency? is there a way to fix it?

@zli Pushed enough, all sensors will show hot pixels. Longer exposures, high ISO, higher ambient temperatures, less signal (light), etc. will make them more noticeable. When shooting a bright scene, the hot pixels are usually lost in the abundant light falling on the sensor. When shooting in very low light or grossly underexposing, there's not enough light to drown out the hot pixels. It's covered at Hot, stuck, or dead pixels. What's the difference? and How to prevent hot pixels?

I ran a few more tests, thanks to @Michael C's pointers. Here are the following results:
no change to sensor:
- f/2.8, 1/6", ISO 200
- Blue specks (similar to the top speck in the sample pictures)
- f/10, 2.0", ISO 200
- White specks (similar to the bottom speck in the sample pictures)
manual sensor cleaning:
- f/2.8, 1/6", ISO 200
- Blue specks in the exact same location, but smaller
- f/10, 1.8", ISO 200
- White specks in the exact same location, but smaller
pixel mapping:
- f/2.8, 1/7", ISO 200
- as far as I can tell, nothing!
- f/10, 1.9", ISO 200
- as far as I can tell, nothing!
I guess the pixel mapping solved it! Thanks for all the information everyone, I'll keep it in mind for the future

I ran a few more tests, thanks to @Michael C's pointers. Here are the following results:
no change to sensor:
- f/2.8, 1/6", ISO 200
- Blue specks (similar to the top speck in the sample pictures)
- f/10, 2.0", ISO 200
- White specks (similar to the bottom speck in the sample pictures)
manual sensor cleaning:
- f/2.8, 1/6", ISO 200
- Blue specks in the exact same location, but smaller
- f/10, 1.8", ISO 200
- White specks in the exact same location, but smaller
pixel mapping:
- f/2.8, 1/7", ISO 200
- as far as I can tell, nothing!
- f/10, 1.9", ISO 200
- as far as I can tell, nothing!
I guess the pixel mapping solved it! Thanks for all the information everyone, I'll keep it in mind for the future

@Hueco ah thanks, I've never heard of hot pixels. I looked through my older photos and it seems that there are a few more that come and go. i.e. some photos don't have these hot pixels, but have it in other locations. is there a way to fix this?

I'm not convinced these are hot pixels. If your camera has an automatic sensor cleaning routine, run it a few times and then try your test again. Do the spots move? What happens when you use a wider aperture (using the same ISO and shifting the shutter time)? What happens when you use a narrower aperture?
