Answer
Thanks for your question.
I doubt you've collapsed the well. A pump doesn't have enough suction to do that. To clean a point you need to apply pressure to the well. Instead of sucking water in through the point your forcing water out through it. This would help push a bit of the debris away from the well screen.
Truthfully, I think you probably still have a suction air leak. Well screens don't plug-up in a few days they slowly diminish in production over time. Recheck all of your connections. Try applying water pressure to the pump. Any suction leaks before the check valve will show.
Good luck, if you have further question feel free to ask.
