You don't catch hemorrhoids. It is not a transmissible disease entity. Hemorrhoids are basically swollen or inflammed veins in the rectum/anus. It is typically caused by increased pressure within the return system, and can be caused by constipation, diarrhea, portal htn, obesity, and pregnancy. If you are truly talking about catching the disease, you are probably mistaking it for something like condylomata accuminata which is caused by the human papilloma virus.

The same way everyone else gets them - they have weak spots in the intestinal muscles that allow the tissue to protrude. Not getting enough fiber in the diet so that you get constipated and have to strain to have a bowel movement can make hemorroids worse.
