Should I say

Your or someone else's

Yours or someone else's

When I am referring to an item that may either belong to the person I am addressing, or someone else?

Example context:

Check your/s or someone else's current balance.

Could you give a couple of sentences to give some context? In the meantime, you might want to look at possessive adjectives and possessive pronouns. – Greybeard Jun 11 '20 at 15:25
@Greybeard I have had a look at the question on yours vs your but still unsure. I will add examples now. – Miriam Jun 11 '20 at 15:26
