It sounds like the tissues aren't given a chance to recuperate between rides.
One thing that helps is riding a different saddle a few times each week, which helps distribute the pressure in slightly different areas.
For example, my Allez has a specialized power saddle, and my Supersix Evo has a Romin Evo.
Either works OK for me, but the pressure points are slightly different.
