Sorry that you're having issues down there, but may I suggest the source of your problem may not be the sweating?
Everybody sweats, and many of us get quite soggy on rides.
I often ride long climbs that last up to two hours, and my bibs are always drenched at the summit. Even on relatively cool days.
If I sit down anywhere before descending, I leave a wet spot behind.
Even with all this sogginess, I almost never experience skin problems. My only precautions are wearing high quality bib shorts with a good chamois, and applying some Udderly Smooth chamois cream. Also, I get out of those wet bibs as soon as soon as the ride is done.
