From ep102(Paternity I think) on, House has constantly been suspicious of sexual abuse from the parents of patients (there's another instance of this in upcoming spoilers as well, but I don't want to spoiler others with details). The reason he didn't call CPS in Skin Deep, as he stated, was in case the father had more information we needed.
Based on his relationships and personality, I pretty much assumed from day one that he was abused growing up. The symptoms fit, as House would say. Daddy's Boy added even more evidence to this. By the time ODOR rolled around, the "big secret" was perceived by many as more of a "no shit Sherlock". In ODOR, House mentioned ice-baths and being kept outside overnight as some of the forms of punishment used against him. This tells us two things, John House was more creative than most abusers in his methods, and two, one of his forms of punishment involve Greg being naked. The second alone makes it pretty obvious.
