It's Malnourished because you can see the hip cartilage protruding around the base of the tail on both sides. Needs a lot more food.
Thats for sure an malnourished ray as said. Both hipbones visible and sunken in head. Heater burns is the least problem here IMHO. What is your water parameters? Wc schedule? Tanksize? Filtration?
In parameters i mean ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and ph

that ray is on the brink of death. get earthworms/nightcrawlers, feed 2-3 times per day as much as he will eat, and maybe you can bulk him up.
Like others said, is the tank prepared for the waste of a stingray? are you doing waterchanges regular?

here is a pic of my rays back you can clearly see a huge bump from feeding you should not be able to see the hip bones at all. Any disc damage could be heated burn or poor water quality, to much detritus in your filters etc. good luck
