Considering clinical "Painful subungual tumor", glomus tumor appears more likely of three Mark mentioned.

Agree with Glomus tumor.
Very monotonous, bland cell population with round nuclei, layered linear ribbons of cells, presence of focal close rimming of vessels, visible intracellular bridges (to exclude melanocytic), and eosinophilic deposits of likely BM material help support the Dx . Absence of mitotic activity helps exclude malignant GT (glomangiosarcoma) or GT of unknown malignant potential.
