No: Hepatitis B is a virus that infects your liver. It may cause nausea and clay colored feces, but comstipation and hemorrhoids are not typical of someone infected with hepatitis B. Often constipation leads to hemorrhoids, so if you correct the constipation (increase fluids, fiber, stool softener) then the hemorrhoids should improve. Site baths can help your hemorrhoids as well as Preparation H.
