Artificial colour in food

Question

Asked for Male, 19 Years

Yesterday, I went to eat fast food because the food of our hostel is not good . So I ate chicken lolipop. After eating that while washing my hands I saw that my hands were red with colour. I washed my hands several times with soap still the colour didn't want. In the morning when I was in toilet,my faeces/excretory material was red in colour and my stomach was also paining. Perhaps they have used artificial colours. Will anything happen to me? Will it damage my alimentary canal?
