Passive Immunity & Acquired Immunity
,
Receiving antivenom after a snake bite would be an example of passive immunity, where antibodies are transferred from another source (in this case, the antivenom) to provide immediate protection against the venom.
Without seeing the bite and knowing your location, it is difficult to say for sure if it was a snake bite. Signs of a snake bite can include swelling, pain, and possibly puncture wounds. It's best to seek veterinary care immediately if you suspect a snake bite to ensure proper treatment.
Most bites cause only minor harm, but the bite of a poisonous snake can kill you or make you very ill.

No, antivenin is used to treat the bite of a rattlesnake.

No. There is no such thing as antivenin for anything.
Yes - anti-venin is type specific. You need to know what species of snake inflicted the bite - to administer the correct remedy.
If the snake is non-venomous, then no special treatment is needed beyond what you would do for any puncture wound. Snakes do not have dirty teeth and there is very little danger of infection from a snake bite. Most of the germs a snake would have do not affect humans at all. It is possible to get Salmonella from handling snakes, but this is from contact with waste and not their fangs. If the snake is venomous then an antivenin needs to be administered. Each different species of venomous snake has a different venom and for every different venom there is a special antivenin. It is very, very important to get a good look at the snake so that it can be described to doctors or herpetologists so that the correct antivenin can be administered.
