To give you a comprehensive answer, I’d need to know which specific health issue you're referring to, as there are many health issues with various impacts on different health domains. However, I can outline common health domains that are often affected by various health issues. Please specify the health issue for more tailored information.

That said, here’s a general overview of major health domains often impacted:
