What causes front end of car to vibrate & make somewhat of grinding noise when i turn or reverse and turn wheels

It has been making this noise for about 3 mos and getting more noticeable. It started when I would be reversing I could hear a noise like it rubs on something. checked steering fluid it was good. But now when I am pulling up somewhere and turning wheels it makes same noise. Does it more and is more obvious when I am going bout 5-10 mph.
