Enlarged heart on x-ray

Good evening, today did an x-ray, because after acute respiratory viral infection was suspected pneumonia. So, in the picture the heart is enlarged. I'm in a panic. This is bad?

Hello! Since you didn’t indicate who was given an x-ray, how old the child was, etc. - it’s very difficult to say how bad it is.

You need to do an ECG and echocardiography and consult a cardiologist.
