I'm really worried because I think I might have paraphimosis. My foreskin is stuck and it's formed this ring with some swelling. Is there any way I can treat this at home or should I see a doctor?

Paraphimosis can restrict blood flow to the glans penis( head ),potentially leading to tissue damage if left untreated. Therefore, while some home remedies may provide temporary relief , definitive treatment should be performed by a specialist .

I'm trying to figure out the best time to drink milk. Should I have it in the morning or at night? Also, is it okay to drink milk right after dinner, or should I wait a bit? I've got a mixed pitta dominant and vata prakrati, so I'm wondering if milk is good for me. Plus, when I have acidity, is it recommended to drink milk? And what about when I'm constipated is milk a good idea then?
It's good to have milk at your comfortable time, except when you have constipation issues you try to avoid it
