Spilled milk in charging port, it dried overnight (iPhone XR)

Last night I spilled milk on myself and didn't realize it got into the charging port of my iphone, so I plugged my iphone in when I went to sleep and I woke up to the Liquid in Charging port. I thought it was the cable so I tried a different one and it still didn't work. Then I got a light and I saw that there was dried milk stuck to the top of the inside of the charging port. I don't know how to get it out, I'm scared to damage the phone. What should I do? I'm thinking of just resorting to wireless charging.
