What are the other way means of physically I can transmit Syphilis rather then sex or oral sex ? Does saliva contains hiv or syphilis bone bacteria/viruses ? Can my family get any transmission from me with no touch.

Saliva contains hiv virus, but its very feeble and dies outside, so you need ulcers or raw mucosa to transmit. If there is no contact, you won't transmit it to family members, don't worry.
