First place to start is to remove the face plate to the shower. Then run shower with plate off and look inside with a flashlight. Leak could be above where shower arm connects to plumbing behind wall, or right at valve, of course. If you have a volume control put that back in when face plate off and move that back and forth to see if that is issue.
Let us know what kind of shower.. tile/fiberglass, etc. Let us know shower valve name... and on 1st or 2nd floor?
