    The urologic infection that a source close to Bill Clinton says led to the former president's hospitalization is common in older individuals and can be serious, experts say.

    But when treated in a timely manner, the prognosis for such cases is excellent.

    Clinton, 75, was admitted Tuesday evening to a California hospital, where he received intravenous antibiotics and fluids, his doctors said in a statement, adding that Clinton was responding well to treatment.

    Former President Bill Clinton hospitalized with infection

    A source close to Clinton told NBC News that his initial diagnosis was a urologic infection that morphed into a broader infection.

    While little else was immediately revealed about Clinton's condition, including whether it originated in his urinary tract or elsewhere in the urinary system, experts who were not involved in his care said such spread of infection can be life-threatening without prompt medical attention.

    Staying hydrated or treating an enlarged prostate with appropriate medications can prevent infections from happening in the first place, the doctors said.

    But if you do get sick, it is possible to identify and treat an infection before it requires hospitalization.

    If there are any unusual discomforts — such as burning during urination, lower abdominal pain, increased urgency to urinate — it's wise to make an appointment with a urologist. Catching the infection early usually means a course of oral antibiotics can treat it.

    But sometimes, patients do not have such obvious symptoms, said Dr. Roger Dmochowski, professor of urology, gynecology and surgery and associate surgeon in chief for Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

    Instead, fatigue and an overall malaise might be the only signs that something is amiss.

    "If there is a symptom, don’t ignore it. Just get it checked."
