Brief Answer:
take milk if it suits you.

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Noted the history, albeit short and specific.

If the milk suit your intestines, does not cause constipation or loose stools you can certainly drink milk.
It will not cause any effects on your piles.

Have you been examined by any Doctor/ General Surgeon by doing ano-proctoscopy to know the exact diagnosis and grade of piles?
What are your symptoms?
As a general rule you should take laxatives and stool softeners if there are hard stools.
Take diet with more fibers.
Avoid foods that cause hard stools.

Take care.
Let me know how can I assist you further.
Waiting for your feedback.
