It is ofcourse concern..

Loud heart beat is also called palpitations, If your heart rate is little high then your heart sounds will become audible.

Secondly it is cause due to some many reasons, it is an important early sign to be picked by a physician to proceed further like hyperthyroidism, tachycardia, fibrillations and high blood pressure.
