Why do my contacts still feel unconfortable?

So I got my contacts for the first time this past wednesday, when I put them on for the first time, they were confortable, I barely felt then on. Afterwards three days later, they dried easily and itch. I got rewetting drops, they made the itch go away but made my eyes red. So what now, I didn't put them on today, should I put them on tomorrow. Is this normal or they are not fit for me? I clean them just like my doctor told me

    The problem could be with your cleaning solution. I had a lot of problems when I first started wearing soft lenses, I blamed the lenses but I was really allergic to something in most of the solutions like Opti-free, Aquify and Renu MPS, the protein removers I think. Then I tried Aosept and Clear Care. The comfort was awesome but I found the peroxide systems to be a hassle. I then tried the 'Renu for Sensitive Eyes' multipurpose solution. After that, no problems.

    Do you wash your hands every time you put them on? If you don't it's important that you do. Whenever I put mine on I make sure my hands are always clean. I usually wash them for 20 seconds and clean my hands with a paper towel because a towel contains many germs and dusts after to many uses. If it doesn't work talk to your eye doctor. Maybe your contacts are too big for your eyes or maybe you need a better brand. Good Luck!
