Here's a link to several pix of a nasty situation in my (only)
bathroom.



I am scared to death that there is a leak somewhere in the wall which
is showing up at the base.

Background: Some years ago the latch on the shower went bad, and
water leaked out in this area. So I replaced the latch. Shower is

Any idea what could be causing this, and what I need to do?

TIA

others could. *The OP's message says the link is to several pictures but I
only see one picture.

I had trouble downloading them all at once. *I guess that can't be
done. *Here is one mo

the situation would be very helpful!!
