Overwearing of contacts don't really have symptoms until its too late. For your situation how have to stop wearing contacts for a few days, im afraid that your eyes is injured from the scratching. Your contacts may have a slight defect or have protein deposit that makes it scratchy.

There are many possible answers to your questions. Maybe your contacts have a minor tear in it because you've been using them for a while. Maybe you have a semi dry eyes/ wearing the contacts for too long, and you need to regularly use eye drops to keep your contacts, and your eyes, wet. Your environment can play a huge part in this too -- the air conditioner may dry out your eyes and contacts, staring at computer for a prolonged time may tire your eyes or cause the eyes to blink less often, etc
If the above possibilities don't apply to you, go to your nearest optometrist, perhaps your contacts are of bad qualities.
