Solitary glomus tumors must be differentiated from leiomyoma and eccrine spiradenoma. Multiple glomus tumors must be differentiated from other diseases such as cavernous hemangioma and blue rubber-bleb nevus syndrome.

Differential diagnosis

The presence of pain in most cases means the differential diagnosis must include other painful tumors that can occur in the digits:[1]
