What Causes Severe Hemorrhoids During 32 Weeks Of Pregnancy?

Hi, I m 32 weeks pregnant and am recently experiencing severe hemorrhoids (3 to 4 days now) which is very slowly subsiding. Today I experienced severe lower back pain near the tailbone and have restless legs. I m not sure if it s all pregnancy related.
