Yes, any kind of prolonged pelvic pushing can cause hemorrhoids. Managing the pressure on an ongoing basis is going to be really important in this case. Getting the pelvic floor evaluated is another extremely valuable things one could do in post partum, as the pelvic floor could be overactive secondary to birth trauma as well as constipation which a lot of women experience in early post partum. Hope this helped!
