I was cleaning wooden bed with Lysol. Then noticed weird Grey marks after it. Now I can't remove them. Is there any way to fix it?

Hi, welcome to the Woodworking SE. This looks like standard clouding, caused by water getting trapped in/under the finish. It may or may not be reversible. If it has been a couple of days and there has been no change (pale stains from water can go away on their own) you can try heating the area with a hairdryer and see if it has any effect. More than likely it will only give minimal improvement, but it will tell you it is a water mark rather than a bleaching effect from the Lysol. – Graphus Sep 17 '19 at 8:52

And @Ses, in order to give better responses we'll need more details than this! Post a pic or, ideally, a couple of pics of the problem — "white spots" can be a number of different things. – Graphus Jan 5 at 10:02
This is clouding from from water vapors in the Lysol getting trapped in under the finish. Sometimes you can take a very lightly alchohol dampened cloth and gently, very gently wipe over the area. Don’t press into the wood and don’t stay in one spot too long. You can also try a heat source like a hair dryer.
