I buy warm rated boots. For leather hiking boots, the rating comes from how much Thinsulate they use. I put my boots in front of the heat register over night. They are designed to insulate so it takes a long time to heat them up. Several companies now carry women's sizes. I am currently wearing Georgia Boot leather boots that use Goretex to make them waterproof and are rated at 1000 gms Thinsulate. I bought them 1/2 size too big and only wear one pair of normal socks. I find that having boots slightly roomy is more important than warm socks. Of course, the boots have to be broken in before you can get away with that or they will butcher your feet.
It is critical that you start out with warm feet. It is best to leave home with feet toasty. If possible, you should also heat her foot before putting it in the boot.
She should ride up front with the floor heat on in the vehicle. If everyone is over-dressed for the ride, roll down windows but keep the feet heated.
The chemical foot warmers could be used to heat the boot prior to putting your foot in. If your foot is trapped in there with the foot warmer, it gets over-heated. The rash was probably not from an allergy but more likely from getting cooked.
