How to prevent relatives from acquiring the Herps?
I will be having a relative stay with me for an extended period of time. I wish not to accidentally transfer the Herps. So what are some precautions I should take. I know the following:
1. Don't share utensil and drinking cups.
2. No skin to skin contact (Hugs)
3. No kisses
4. No using the same deodorant
5. No using the same soap and toothpaste.
6. No sharing the same bed spread, pillow, etc.
Is there any more things I should know about. For example, can we use the same computer (Yeah I'm serious :-))
Also, is practicing martial arts/boxing still safe? Or should I stop, in order to prevent the spread.
Thanks.

the only way you would transmit your oral herpes to a family member who is an adult is if you romantically kissed them. No other precautions to take other than that. social pecks aren't an issue for adults.
no, you don't have to stop your martial arts either.
