A glomus tumor is a soft tissue tumor that arises from the glomus body, a peripheral organ responsible for temperature regulation of the skin. It accounts for about 1% to 5% of tumors occurring in the hand, is mainly located in the subungal, and is less than 1 cm in size. Diagnosis is mainly based on clinical symptoms, and the main symptoms are pain at the site of glomus tumor, pinpoint tenderness, and cold intolerance. The pain is severe and usually requires surgical resection, and the results of treatment are good with complete resection of the tumor. In this case report, the patient is a 37-year-old female who developed pain in the radial side around the proximal interphalangeal joint of the right second finger without any traumatic history. On physical examination and imaging, it was diagnosed as a glomus tumor of the digital nerve and resected. After surgery, the symptoms improved and there was no recurrence. A careful examination and accurate diagnosis and treatment are necessary for symptomatic masses.
