You should be fine pinning only glutes for a long estered test cycle, but if there's discomfort then certainly start utilizing other injection sites.

Scar tissue: http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-scar-tissue.htm

Another contributing factor may be that you are not penetrating deeply into the muscle, this will contribute to the problem.

As said if you are experiencing the pain start hitting quads just make sure to read up on where to inject so you are centered in the muscle.

Next time around assuming you are rotating right to left cheek also try hitting in a different spot each time, always in the upper outer quadrant of course, but instead of hitting in the dead center of the upper outer quadrant, one time go 1/2-3/4" inward the next time go 1/2-3/4" outward this way the shots will be an inch to an inch and a half apart so it will be 2 full weeks before you hit the same spot again.
