Usage Note
cabeza is feminine, so it pairs with la. The body part takes a definite article rather than a possessive in Spanish: you say me duele la cabeza, never mi cabeza duele. It also figures in idioms like perder la cabeza (to lose one's head).
Examples
"Me duele la cabeza."
Natural Translation
My head hurts.

The head hurts to me.
