LCP Hammer stuck forward

Is this bad for the gun, if it happens one time? After I disassembled my LCP, I tried to thumb-lower the hammer while pulling the trigger but it slipped and slammed forward with little resistance from my thumb. I was able to use man strength and recock the hammer with my thumb and reassemble it just fine. Function check seems fine. I'm just worried slamming the hammer forward might've cause damage or premature wear.
