Sudden issues with right eye and contact lens

I'm currently 21 years old and have been wearing contact lenses since I was 15 since I have moderate astigmatism. I've never had any issues until recently. Starting January of 2021, my right eye has been having issues on and off. I will wake up and my right eye will be extremely sensitive to light, burn mildly, and my nose will be runny. These symptoms continue for about 2-3 days until they clear up for a day or two, then, return and the cycle continues. I have very good hygiene when handling my lenses, I wash my hands before handling, wash the case daily, replace the case and solutions (both Bausch and Lomb Protein Remover/Conditioner) monthly, and wash the lenses themselves daily. Anyone with similar experiences?
