An easy way to check the crow's foot adjustment is to play B4 using the left pinky, then add the right pinky on the key used for C5. If that makes the note speak correctly, then the crow's foot is not closing the C5 key completely.

Old age has crept up on me a long time ago. But I and many others I know don't have the cramping problem. I agree with James' suggestion that you may be holding the clarinet too tight.
