If i shared a cup of water with someone and i have a sore in my mouth but i do not know if the other person has a cut in the mouth, what kind of diseases can i get?

Colds, flu: The only significant risks are for common cold, influenza, and other mostly minor viral infection. And these risks are no different with or without an oral sore, such as a canker sore. With or without such sores, there is no risk for HIV or other blood borne infections, such as hepatitis B or C.
