Yes: Men can have a clear, occasionally milky, discharge with erections, after erections, and after ejaculation. The clear discharge with the erection is commonly referred to as "pre-cum" and prepares the urethra to carry semen. After erections, some of this pre-cum may still be in the urethra and leak out. After ejaculation, residual semen may leak out. See your doc, if there is pain or continues.

No: Hemorrhoids have nothing to do with the penis or penile discharge. You should probably see a doctor to be examined.

Yes: Yes, that's normal as long as it doesn't happen throughout the day, you don't have pain or irritation, burning when you urinate, or lesions anywhere in the area.
