Pain In Center Of Right Glute While Doing Splits In Yoga. Did I Tear Something?

Hello< I was doing the splits in yoga and ever since i have had a pain in the center of my right glute. I used to be able to bend forward with straight legs ( standing) and touch my forehead to knees. i can do this with the left leg only now . If i try with both legs straight or just the right leg ,it hurts my right glut too much. Did i tear something?
