Are cramps after nerve block for rotator repair surgery normal?

I’ve been carefully listening to my body and thought that I should get back to normal. Nothing strenuous though. PT was from July to October. The cramping occurs when I am getting something from the fridge or reaching into the back of a cabinet for example.
I agree that there should be some type of resistance pain during healing.
I’m curious to know what my surgeon will say as well.
Thank you!

According to my instructions, I am still limited to 2 lbs lifting. I overdid while reorganizing yesterday and paid with cramping all night last night. Today I backed off, and have iced and taken tylenol-hoping tonight is better.
We have transitioned to our winter tiny house, so I meet my new PT next week. And I move to the next phase in my doc's protocol.
