If you are not sure about the bite/sting , visit a hospital to check if it's a snake bite or insect sting.
Snake bite is venomous or non venomous.Only a clinical examination and few blood investigations will inform the nature of bite.

It would be great if you could attach a picture because snake bites have characteristic bite marks depending on the kind of snake it is. Since you've been asymptomatic for so long, my guess would be that it's not a snake bite but it would be in your best interest to connect and consult with me.
